I came across this cute, encouraging little book today when I was dropping off some stacks to a local little free library. It‘s about a little girl who‘s struggling with reading and isn‘t sure she likes it. She meets an encouraging librarian who directs her to read to a dog…and the child begins to blossom. Shown: an AI image of reading time with my favorite breed!

DrSpalding This would be considered realistic fiction. Make sure you use your genre guide to help you with categorizing the genres. Stories that don‘t actually happen but could are considered realistic fiction. 4y

Madeline Finn and the Library Dog is a cute RF book about a girl overcoming her fear of reading. In this book, Madeline Finn doesn't like to read especially not out loud. She's let down after never getting a star, but instead, stickers that just say keep trying. Madeline goes to the library when the librarian has her read to a dog named Bonnie! Madeline loved reading to Bonnie, especially since she wasn't afraid to make a mistake in front of her!

tclivio Madeline overcame a lot when reading with Bonnie, and finally went on to earn a star in school! This book would be a great book to read with your students as a read aloud. With the following lesson plan https://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Product/Madeline-Finn-and-the-Library-Dog-Re..., you can have students create their own pet that they are able to practice reading with. 4y

tclivio This lesson goes along with UDL 9.1 (promote expectations and beliefs that optimize motivation), since the students will be reading to the pet knowing that it is okay to make mistakes and that their pet knows that they are trying their best! It also goes along with EL 3 (encourage self-talk (positive thinking)). #ucflae3414sp21 4y

Ugh! It annoys me when teachers don‘t realize the emotional damage they inadvertently inflict on struggling readers. Thankfully Madeline finds a friend who gives her the confidence she needs to succeed. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Cute! I absolutely love the idea of kiddos reading to dogs. The nonjudgement of it, I think, is super helpful. I always wanted to take my kid to one of these, but couldn't ever find one :( (9/20)

Blueberry My library has them weekly. 7y

TheKidUpstairs I love it to! My library just started bringing in a dog for this very purpose. She's a beautiful, sweet Great Dane. I hope they keep the program up as my guys learn to read. 7y

VioletBramble Check your local animal shelter as well. Some have programs where children can read to the dogs. 7y

night_shift @Blueberry cool! I haven't seen anything about my library doing it, but maybe another in the system does? @TheKidUpstairs I love Danes, that sounds amazing! 🐶😍 @VioletBramble that's a good idea, thanks! I'll have to check. 7y

• Chester, the King Charles Spaniel 👑 • Chester, one of our certified therapy dogs and my personal favorite. The Tail Waggin Tutors group comes every second Saturday of the month for kids to read to 💙 Needless to say that the children's librarians also love the excuse for puppy therapy 😍

Working in tech service in a library means I get exposed to a lot of picture books. I try to read as many as possible. This story, about a girl finding her voice after meeting a reading dog, was touching and sweet. And the art was truly lovely!

Madeline Finn has trouble reading in school and dreads going to the library...until the librarian introduces her to their 'read to a dog' program and she meets Bonnie. Gently encouraging and beautiful, this book will appeal to more than just reluctant readers and animal lovers. 👍

Today we presented our Tail Wagging Tutors(& their humans) this book with a dedication plate to them. I have seen these dogs help bring out confidence from timid readers,& provide encouragement in reading aloud. I have a similar story as "Madeline" in the book- I hated reading bc I couldn't pronounce the words correctly&was embarrassed of my speech impediment. Because of volunteer dogs, my own dogs&Harry Potter I learned to be a confident reader.

LeahBergen That's lovely! 8y

What a wonderful story. We tell a similar story every time we talk to a parent to tell them about our Paws to Read program. I am for anything that will get kids to read more. An story that illustrates what an incredible roll your local library can play in your child‘s education.
