Milne Library offers kid program: “Read to a Dog” on Fri, Jan. 7, 3:30-4:30pm

Can you read to Nellie? She would really like it if you could! Practice your reading skills with a Canine Good Citizen who really loves hearing stories. Reading out loud is a skill that develops over time, with practice. Some people find it very uncomfortable or even frightening to stand in front of a room full of their peers and read even one page of a book. So how do you practice?

Nellie is a Golden Retriever who has been certified by the AKC Canine Good Citizen program.  She would love to have someone read to her! Sign up for an appointment, she’ll be here on Fridays from 3:30 – 4:30 pm.  Go to: Milne Library
