Our beloved therapy dog program, Tail Waggin’ Tales, is back in business! This after-school program is designed for young readers to boost their skills & confidence by reading to a certified therapy dog. Our furry friends are great listeners and lend a non-judgmental ear to help take the pressure off of reading out loud for beginner or reluctant readers. Tail Waggin’ Tales will take place over four 15-minute sessions after school with one child per session. We will of course have a large selection of books to choose from, but feel free to bring a favorite from home to read!
Registration is required to sign-up for a timeslot. Please call us at 207-846-4763 or stop by the library to sign-up in person. Our Puppers are in residence the 1st and 3rd Wednesday of each month excluding any holidays and other closures.
