ESTEVAN - The Estevan Public Library invited their patrons to come out to the Estevan Humane Society for their Reading to Animals event on April 21.
Curated by Alyssa Vacca, the library's children's program co-ordinator, this monthly project has been running since last December, incentivizing kids to read in a more exciting and fun setting, and allowing shelter animals to have some great visitations.
"I saw a picture on Facebook of kids reading to shelter dogs. And I thought it was a good idea, so I contacted the humane society to see if they wanted to collaborate. And they did," Vacca explained on how the program came to 小蓝视频.
"Most of the kids don't read to the animals, which is fine. It just gives them that interaction."
Clifton Gietz came in early to visit with the cats last Thursday, and some of the felines would lay on his lap while he would read to them. Later they got into playing, enjoying their time together. So did several other kids that stopped by to enlighten their furry friends and have some fun.
The next Reading to Animals will take place on May 12 at the Estevan Humane Society from 4-5:30 p.m.
