Reading day at the Somesville library! A full schedule of kids! Cirra came to help at the end as it was hot out and Timber might have gotten to over heated - she was fine though - I brought a fan so the air would circulate in our little nook. I've never seen the little library so busy! Many visitors were there and at times we had 5-6 people watching the session. Jialan got her book pawtographed from Timber for reading 10 books! I handed out many bookmarks to visiting kids and adults and encouraged them to check out the blog for more info on READer dog. Many were fascinated with the program and were surprised to find dogs in the library - especially a big, white, furry Cirra. Hopefully once school starts - NEH school will get approval for a READer dog and Cirra will go there. 2 girls came for the second time (Elizabeth and Mia) and I had a new little girl - Faith - as a first time reader. We are starting to make plans for our October session and having a celebration for being in Somesville 1 year. My buddies Jack and Lydia came - Lydia was excited to read to Cirra and Jack read some to Timber and some to Cirra.
