REGISTRATION IS REQUIRED; PLEASE BE SURE TO REGISTER EACH CHILD SEPARATELY. ALSO, PARENTS/CAREGIVERS DO NOT NEED TO BE REGISTERED, ONLY THEIR CHILDREN.
Margie Miles and Sandy her therapy dog will visit the Derby Public Library for the popular Read to Sandy program. Children ages 5-11 are invited to share a book with Sandy during this interactive reading program.
Each child will be given a 10-15 minute time slot to read to Sandy. Sandy and Margie are registered with Therapy Dogs, Inc. and volunteer at local schools, hospitals and nursing homes. This is a great opportunity for beginner or reluctant readers, as well as experienced readers, to build confidence, enhance their reading skills and encourage a love of reading. Come select a book from “Sandy’s Favorites” on display each month in the Children’s Room.
