Markle Library to offer Spring Paws-to-Read
Paws-to-Read Program is being offered at the Markle Branch Library of Huntington County at 197 East Morse Street PAWS-TO-READ @ HCTPL Markle Branch Library every Saturday morning from March 8 through April 26 by appointment only by calling 260-758-3332.
This program is for children between the ages of 6–12 years old. Space is limited and registration is required. There is no charge for this program.
The mission is to improve the literacy skills of children with the assistance of registered canine reading companions in a fun and relaxed environment. Children will participate in one-on-one sessions in which they practice reading aloud to trained therapy dogs.
Research with therapy animals indicates that children with low self-esteem are often more willing to interact with an animal than another person. Even more, they are inclined to forget about their limitations.
