Kids offered chance to read to therapy dog Tuesday at Derby Neck Library



DERBY - It's the most wonderful time of the month at Derby Neck Library: BARK! 

On the last Tuesday of the month, you have the chance to practice your reading skills and develop confidence by reading a story to the biggest, sleepiest, most utterly indifferent dog you'll ever meet in your life. 

Come to the Children's Room at 5:30 p.m. to pet that pup! The Library is at 307 Hawthorne Ave.

Derby Neck Library hosts Be A Reading Kid program


DERBY - Stop in at the [Derby Neck] library to read to dogs and Be A Reading Kid (B.A.R.K.)! 
We are so excited to welcome certified therapy dogs Spirit and Brian back to the Derby Neck Library. 
The sessions are slated for Sept. 28, Oct. 26, and Nov. 30.
Both pups love children and are fantastic listeners. 
Reading aloud to a dog provides an attentive audience and may boost a child's confidence in their reading skills.
Each participant will receive a commemorative photo of themselves with the dogs, as well as an experience they won't soon forget!
Registration is not required for this program! 
Just stop by our garden anytime between 5 and 6 p.m. if the weather's nice, or stop in at the Children's Room if it's raining. 
Be sure to sign up for our Youth Mailing List here to stay in the loop on cancelations and other important info: https://forms.gle/Hf9wQiLWrB4dcmgMA

Please note that at this time, masks are still required for anyone over the age of 2 who is not fully vaccinated, subject to change per local health department guidelines.
