Description:
 These specially-trained dogs will listen to children read aloud in 15-minute sessions. Designed for children who can read, but may be hesitant to read aloud. Experts note that reading to a dog can provide an opportunity to build self-esteem, boost reading skills and enhance children's love of reading.
