Practice Reading Aloud with Our Special Friend.

Our furry friend is a gentle, trained therapy dog who patiently listens to kids as they read out loud. This program is great for reluctant readers and is a wonderful way for reading-age children and tweens to get more practice reading aloud.

Bring your own books or choose from the library shelves!
