READ TO VICTORY, A THERAPY DOG
We are very excited about our new therapy dog program. Children ages 5-11 (or K-5) can come to the library and read to a certified therapy dog. This is a great way to get children excited about reading. Our first session will be on Saturday, January 12, at 10:00 AM at the Franklin Free Library. We hope to make these sessions available on a monthly basis.
- Children can bring their own book to read to Victory or use one of our books. Registration is strongly advised as each child will be given a 10 minute slot.
