Reading Education Assistance Dogs - Lola
Thursday, March 28, 2024
6:00 PM - 7:00 PM
Anderson Branch
Main Reading Area
The Reading Education Assistance Dogs program is for children ages 5-12. Kids who are learning to read sometimes get stressed - not because they aren't capable of reading, but because they get nervous and self-conscious. When they read with a dog, they start to relax. We invite young readers who may be struggling a bit with reading to sign up for a six-week session with one of the reading teams. Readers see the best results when they attend all six sessions, but if you need to miss a session, let your team know. We have books available or you can bring your own. Call or text Shannon Kunz at 402-310-4151 to register to read to Lola.
