Reading with Rafi

Certified therapy dogs, Rafi and Lucy, will be at the library, for children to read to.

Research has found that beginning or struggling readers often show marked improvement when reading to a dog because they are non-judgmental and are great listeners. This makes children are more relaxed which can help them learn.

Registration is required.
