Read with Paws

10:30 a.m. Saturday

Children can come to the library, select a book, and read to a furry friend. All therapy dogs and handlers have been certified by an accredited organization. This program was designed originally because children feel less pressure to read to a dog than an adult so, it was meant to be a way to help struggling readers or even just encourage reading. It is open to all levels of readers and non-readers. Register for your 15 minute time slot on the YPL website. Space is limited. If you are unable to attend, contact the library.
