A male dog named Sting usually has children read stories to him at the White Bear Lake Library in Minnesota.
Thanks to the power of social media, there was a story that the male dog named Sting did not anyone be in his presence to read him a story from a book.
When the story of the dog who was lonely inside the library in Minnesota became worldwide news, the response from the persons who read the story called "Paws To Read" became such a huge hit that children who use the library to read stories to the dog have been booked until April 2018 in Ramsey County Minnesota.
It is very unusual for a library to have a dog sit still as a companion for children to share their time reading a book to a dog. But it works in this case.

I have never seen any dogs inside any library in Louisiana.

I've heard that reading to a dog is a great way for kids to learn to read. Now I'm wondering if Sting was named after the singer or the wrestler.

That is a good question since the joke was that when Sting fans would go to the sports arena to get an autograph from Sting, they were shocked to see that Sting the wrestler was there.

I guess the dog enjoys being read stories inside a library which is unusual since there is no library in Louisiana that has kids reading books to dogs.
