## About

Children who are independent or nearly independent readers can sign up for a 15-minute session reading aloud to Ellie, a Maltese registered therapy dog, at the Plymouth Public Library. Reading to a calm, friendly listener is a comfortable way to practice, and it can help build comprehension and confidence. The program is intended for children under 12 and takes place in the craft room. Registration is required for each session.
