Reading to a Therapy Dog
Join us in the Children's Library to read one of your favourite books to our wonderful accredited therapy dogs. This event is suitable for children aged 6 to 12, who must be accompanied by a responsible adult during their time. Each child will get a 10 minute slot, on a first come first served basis; so make sure to join us promptly! We have plenty of books to choose from, so come and develop your literary confidence with our keen listening canine friends.
