Read to a Dog

Reading sessions will now be scheduled. This will help cut back on wait time as well as promote a quieter and calmer environment so the children can focus on their reading and their turn with our furry friends. It's important that we're courteous to each other.

Read to a Dog is a great way to improve the literacy skills of children. It encourages children to read by providing a non-judgmental listener in our furry friends. Independent readers in Grades K-5 will read to a certified therapy dog for ten minutes. The therapy dogs and their owners are members of Bright and Beautiful Therapy Dogs, Inc.

Children can bring a book they'd like to read to a dog or pick one out at the library. Each child will read 5-10 minutes with a dog.The program will take place in the community room. Registration is required: https://mtpl.libcal.com/calendar?t=d&q=Read%20to%20a%20dog&cid=-1&cal=-1&inc=0
