Kids are encouraged to join your South Branch Library for Read to a Dog Day where youth can practice their reading to a group of registered therapy dogs who love to hear stories. Partnering with Abilene Therapy Dogs, this literacy initiative allows kids to read to an audience that won’t judge them if they stumble on trying to pronounce a word or make a mistake. Simply come out, choose a book from a selection we’ll have to offer, and then partner with one of several canine friends to start reading.
