Bentley, a highly trained, certified "R.E.A.D. Program" Golden Labradoodle will soon join the Foley Public Library’s part time staff!  Thanks to the Reading Education Assistance Dogs® program, Bentley and his human, Lynda Folks, will be in the children's area of the library waiting for YOU to come by and read! R.E.A.D. dogs are registered therapy animals who volunteer with their handler as a team, going to schools, libraries, and many other settings as reading companions for children. Bentley will be at the Foley Public Library on Saturday, November 19th AT 2:00 to meet and greet everyone.  Then, on Tuesday, November 22nd from 3:30 - 5:00, and Tuesday, December 13th from 3:30-5:00, Bentley will be at the Foley Library to read with any child who has made an appointment by calling the Foley Public Library at 251-943-7665!  Bentley’s time, expertise and gentle, loving nature is free.  If you have questions, please call the library anytime.
