Young readers can build communication skills and self-confidence by reading with adoptable pets or listening to a story at the Wallis Annenberg PetSpace.
This fun, family-friendly experience includes a book reading, opportunity to meet an adoptable pet or critter ambassador, and fun pet-related craft.
Afterwards young readers can pick a book from the library and read to the pets outside their adoption suites.
