Tales to Tails At Wilton Library: 11 a.m. to noon. The Ridgefield Operation Animal Rescue Therapy Dog Program will be bringing therapy dogs to the library for children to read to them.

Children must read independently to participate in this program. Registration is required. Wilton Library, 137 Old Ridgefield Road.
