- **Event Name**: Tales to Tails: Read to a Dog!
- **Event Start and End Date**: Sat, 28 Feb, 2026 at 10:00 am
- **Event Description**: Tales to Tails: Read to a Dog! �
Kids are invited to boost their reading confidence by reading aloud to a gentle, trained therapy dog named Orla. Our Tales to Tails program offers a calm, playful, and nonjudgmental space where young readers can practice their skills, build fluency, and enjoy the company of a four-legged listener.

Reading to a dog makes learning feel like play which is essential to literacy development! Through play, children engage their imagination, build language skills, and gain the confidence they need to become lifelong readers.

Perfect for emerging and reluctant readers, because dogs make the best audience! �

Each child may sign up for a 15-minute reading session with Orla during the program hour.

Kathleen Karl, a registered therapy dog handler and seasoned educator with over 20 years of experience helping children become successful readers, will be on hand to support young participants. Kids are welcome to bring their own book or choose one from the library.

When: Saturday, February 28, 2026
Time: 10:30–11:30 AM

Reserve your reading time with Orla by contacting Carrie King at youthlibrarian@whitinglibrary.org or calling 802-875-2277.
