Reading with Shepherd Daisy
Daisy is a German Shepherd that encourages children to read 15 minutes a day
to their pets or stuffed animals.
In March of 2022 GGAB hosted the first ever Reading With Shepherd Daisy event featuring a special appearance by DreamWorks animation artist Chris Aguirre, creator of Puss in Boots! 300 APS title 1 students were invited to participate in a day of literacy and fun activities. The event was held and hosted by the Cesar Chavez Community Center in ABQ, NM. The RWSD event was a true testament to what is possible when the community comes together!
Revisit that day with us at the video below!
