Our canine friends will be waiting for you at the library. It will make them so happy to hear you read books! </h4><h4>Bring your own book or take one from our shelves and spend some time with our furry friends. </h4><h4>Reading aloud to certified therapy dogs is an excellent way for emerging readers to practice their skills (and it's lots of fun, too!). <br></h4><br></div>
