Event Details
Come to the library and practice reading to Gigi, our therapy dog!
The target audience is elementary-aged children and younger.
This program uses therapy dogs as reading companions for children. Often, reading for children involves overcoming fear. The dogs offer a method to help alleviate the fear associated with reading by serving as non-judgmental, attentive listeners.
