Therapy Dogs
Would you like to brighten up a child's day by giving them a book? Giving a book not only helps a child feel special but it is also something that they can use to help them learn to read and learn that books can be fun!
Please bring new or gently used children books to our first general meeting. We will be collecting them to distribute to the children who attend our Therapy Dogs reading program at Edison, Homestead, Pinecrest, and Liberty City libraries.
Questions? E-mail Dr. Rose Huber or Jocelyn Springstun |
