## About

Children can read and hear stories with Wilson, a specially trained dog certified by Assistance Dogs International, in the Children's Library at the Richmond Heights Memorial Library. Reading aloud to a calm, friendly dog helps kids build confidence without pressure. A gentle, encouraging program for young readers, especially those who are still gaining confidence or simply love dogs.
