Barli, a 4-year-old Bernese Mountain Dog, checks the text for Alex, 9, as Barli’s owner, Joya Foster checks, too, Saturday, Dec. 28 during Reading with Rover, a monthly reading event at the downtown Everett Public Library. Saturday’s Rover event was the second outing for the team of Barli and Joya. There were three dogs and handlers and a line of kids waiting to read in the snug library on the blustery afternoon. Reading with Rover is the Fourth Saturday of each month, 1-2 p.m.
