Reading Motivator

Charlie is a Silver Dapple Dachshund who is 11 yrs. old & weighs 13 lbs. He visits the library approximately 2 times per week. Students who have parental permission to handle Charlie may do so under the supervision of the librarian.

Charlie has the title of "Director of Motivational Programs" @ L. Leo Judice Elem. He hosts 9-weeks reading celebrations. Each student has the chance to attend if he/she meets his/her reading goal.

All students learn how to care for Charlie. They are learning how to practice self-control around Charlie in order for him to remain calm while visiting the library.

Due to Covid-19, Charlie will not be visiting the library at this time.  We hope he will be able to visit soon!
