Read to a Dog

Read to a Dog provides children the opportunity to read to certified therapy dogs alongside the animal's handler.

Meet Miss Reno the dog in the picture book area. By providing safe, positive interaction with animals, Read to a Dog offers children a relaxed, non-judgmental environment in which to practice reading. The benefits of reading to animals have been documented to include increased reading fluency and improved attitudes about reading aloud. Recommended for children ages 5-12.
