Ada Public LIbrary's Reading with Rover Program begins Friday, according to Amanda Bennett, library director.
"Youth from Kindergarten through sixth grade can come and read to Snickerdoodle, a certified therapy dog! Studies show that reading to a pooch just might increase literacy in your little ones," said Bennett.
She added that the library still has three spots open for kids. Registration is required, so please call and sign-up for one of these spots:
3:30 p.m.
3:50 p.m.
4:10 p.m.
