Telling Tails Reading Program

October 8, 2025 @ 4:00 pm - 5:00 pm
A boy sits next to a cat, reading a book out loud. Above the cat, a thought bubble shows it imagining enjoying a bowl of food. On the other side, a girl reads aloud beside a dog, whose thought bubble shows it dressed as a superhero. An open book in the center divides the two scenes.

San Bernardino County Animal Care has partnered with San Bernardino County Library to launch the Telling Tails Reading Program, designed for children ages 6 to 17. This special program offers your child the opportunity to read to our adorable furry friends who are waiting for their forever homes. It’s a fun and rewarding way to provide enrichment for our pets while helping your child build confidence and improve their reading skills.
