Dog Reading Program Returns to Library in July

New, reluctant and struggling readers are invited to practice reading aloud during Tompkins County Public Library’s “Dog Days of Summer” program.

Readers will be able to practice their skills by sharing a story or two with a truly non-judgmental listener—a dog—each Wednesday from 11 a.m. to noon, July 3 through 31 in the Thaler/Howell Programming Room.

Caregivers interested in reserving time for their readers to share a story with Sam, a hound mix, or DJ, a terrier, should contact the Library’s Youth Services Department at (607) 272-4557 extension 275 to reserve a 15-minute time slot.

“Dog Days of Summer” is co-sponsored by Cornell Companions.  For more information, visit http://tcpl.org/kids/programs.php.
