Details:
Children are invited to join our specially-trained therapy dogs to practice reading aloud on Wednesdays at 3:30 and Saturdays at 3:00. Our dogs love to listen!
Read to the Dogs is a program sponsored by the Public Library, Albuquerque Library Foundation, and Bernalillo County. Handlers bring their registered pet therapy dogs into the library and provide children with an opportunity to read aloud. The registered pet therapy dog sits calmly and quietly for a story, creating a relaxing atmosphere for children. This gives children an opportunity to practice their reading skills without fear or judgment. The adults do not correct a child’s reading. Parents may sit quietly in the room with their child or take this moment to find a book and read just outside the program area.
THE PUPS ARE TAKING A BREAK - PLEASE COME SEE US SATURDAY OR NEXT WEDNESDAY
