King was so excited to put on his blue therapy dog vest this morning and head over to the Hilltown Charter School in Haydenville, Massachusetts. First, he received a big hug from the school secretary who signed us in. Then, he was greeted by one of the boys in the Yellows Group excitedly telling King that he was going to be reading to him later in the morning.
Six readers, each reading one-on-one to King. One boy chose to read his book about cats that he bought at the holiday book fair. He had read the book from cover to cover in preparation for sharing it with King. We all learned some interesting facts we didn’t know about all different breeds of cats.
I love watching King interact with the boys and girls. Lily, too. They just love being around children.
