Read With The Dogs At Hinsdale Library

HINSDALE, IL — Kindergartners through fourth graders will have the chance to meet and read with a trained therapy dog at the Hinsdale Library. According to the library website, you can sign up for a 15-minute reading session from 10:30 to 11:15 a.m. on Saturday, Feb. 10.

According to the library, kids spend the time reading a book or two with just the dog and the handler to practice reading aloud. The dogs and their handers have been insured for liability and have undergone reading education training in addition to their extensive training and registration to do animal-assisted therapy.

The event is sponsored by Hinsdale Humane Society.
