Meet Holly!

Wissahickon Valley is excited to have partnered with the sweetest reading buddy around. She is patient, happy-go-lucky, friendly and is adorned with long blonde hair. She is Holly the Therapy Dog!

Holly is an 8 year old Golden Retriever who comes to read with our students on Fridays. She and the kids are becoming more and more in tune with each other. Holly helps take some of the nerves away from reading aloud as well as provide a distraction when we need a break from a good book. Some of Holly’s favorite books happen to be the same as our student’s! These include, Hop on Pop, Henry and Mudge and Where the Sidewalk Ends.

We are thrilled to have Holly (and Ms. Anne) as a part of our WV family!
