Paws For Reading

At Paws for Reading, kids read aloud to a St. John Ambulance therapy dog (and her handler) in our 1st Floor Program Room. These dogs are the best and most patient listeners – perfect for helping young readers feel comfortable and confident. 

For beginner and reluctant readers ages 5 to 10.

Thank you to St. John Ambulance volunteers (four-legged and their humans) for offering this paw-pular program! 

No-Show Policy: We greatly value the time and commitment of our volunteer handler–dog teams, and it is challenging and disappointing when reserved spots go unused. If you register for a session and do not attend or provide advance notice of cancellation, you will not be permitted to register for future sessions.
