Tails and Tales with Mia the Therapy Dog

Your child will have the chance to read aloud to Mia, a certified therapy dog who's the perfect audience. In a relaxed, judgment-free setting at the library's cultural arts center, young readers can practice their skills while building confidence and enjoying stories. Mia won't interrupt, correct, or critique—she's simply there to listen and enjoy. Kids of any reading level, from beginners to independent readers, are welcome, as are those who just love dogs and books. Bring a favorite book from home or select one from the library's collection to share with Mia. This free program offers a wonderful way to help your child develop a positive relationship with reading in a low-pressure environment. It's a great fit for families looking for a meaningful activity that combines literacy and the comfort of a friendly furry friend.
