The Tales with Toby program provides young readers with a unique and supportive environment to practice their reading skills. Children are invited to read aloud to Toby who is a trained therapy dog.

Why Therapy Dogs?
Therapy dogs are friendly, patient, and comforting, making them perfect reading companions. They help build children’s confidence, improve fluency, and foster a love for reading—all while creating a positive and stress-free experience.

How It Works:

• Who Can Join: This program is open to children of all reading levels.
