The Wood County District Public Library is continuing its Paws for Reading program every Tuesday from 4-5 p.m. through December.

Kids can practice reading with the help of Benny the therapy dog and his owner, Carol Treece. Families can schedule a 15-minute appointment slot to meet Benny and to read to him. Benny is a registered therapy dog and often visits organizations like the Wood County Hospital. This is an opportunity for kids to learn about therapy dogs and to inspire a love of reading at a young age.

Registration is required. One family or child per 15-minute registration appointment. To register, call 419-352-8253, email [email protected], or register online at wcdpl.org.
