I loved meeting Sue & Seamus from @StoryDogs yesterday when I was visiting a school #library in Perth. Encouraging #literacy by letting children #read to a cool, non-judgemental canine like Seamus is such an ingenious idea.

Developing children’s reading ability is about confidence as much as smarts and having a gentle, non-judgmental audience like a dog to read to helps with building that confidence. via #EducationToday https://t.co/KqiRP6Voxf @StoryDogs #MinnisJournals #literacy #educhat

It was an absolute pleasure having the @StoryDogs team visit our office on Friday! Probably more fun for the staff than Murphy 😀
