Everything you need before you go — honest gaps say “not listed.”
Come to the library for a visit with Sharon and Cody. Cody the dog loves listening to children read to him and can’t wait to hear their favorite stories! Reading to a specially trained therapy dog builds confidence and is dog-gone fun. To attend, call (626) 744-7270. Presented by Pet Partners. For ages 3-12. For accessibility information and requests, contact the library site hosting the program. Providing at least 72 hours advance notice will help ensure availability.
