Read to a Therapy Dog!

Want to get better at reading? Are you an animal lover? Why not practice your reading skills by reading aloud to Nugget, a therapy dog from Pet Partners, a national organization that has helped to evaluate and support therapy animal teams since 1977. This is a great opportunity for beginning readers to practice their reading skills with a totally non-judgmental listener.

Did you know reading to dogs can boost your reading skills in children as well as help with emotional and social skills!?

This program is open to people of all ages. Children must be accompanied by an adult or caregiver. As spaces are limited, we ask that you sign up for the program as it will be based on a first come first served basis on the day of the program. Call (808)733-8422 or stop by the library to sign up for the program. On the day of the program a sign up sheet for 5-10 minutes will be made available prior to the start of the program at the Adult Reference Desk.

Anyone who requires an auxiliary aid or service for effective communication, or a modification of policies or procedures to participate in a program, service, or activity should contact library staff as soon as possible.
