Go (read with) Big Blue (the reading dog)

Franklin, Blue the Reading Dog and Tachyana from the Mission House Reading Camp strike their favorite poses. For many children, the Pleasure Reading center is very important. It's their chance to choose a book of their own to read. They have an adult teacher partner to read to, read with, or echo read with. Many children have especially enjoyed the Pleasure Reading center this week because of Blue's presence. He usually does exactly what he is supposed to (sleep!) during the center while many children pat his head or rub his belly while reading. This is Franklin and Tachyana's first year at Reading Camp and Blue's second.
