Yes, dogs in the library…who are just waiting to be read to. This program helps readers gain confidence while reading aloud to very attentive listeners. Taser is a certified therapy dog and has his handler with him at all times. “Children who once struggled to read are now improving their skills and their confidence. They develop a healthy appreciation for dogs and learn how to interact in a positive & supportive situation.” Call Miss Amy at Camden Public Library, 207-236-3440, to sign up. Friday afternoons in February.
