Paws to Read at Southport
Practice reading aloud to a friendly therapy dog at Southport Branch.
Paws to Read is a beloved library program where children read aloud to trained, calm dogs. Kids of all reading levels take turns sharing books with patient canine listeners in a low-pressure, judgment-free environment. Dogs are wonderful motivators—many children find reading to a dog less intimidating than reading to adults, which builds confidence and fluency. It's a heartwarming way to practice reading skills while experiencing the joy of connecting with animals.
