Traditionally running from July 3 to August 11, the Dog Days of Summer coincide with the dawn rising of Sirius, the Dog Star. Sirius is the brightest star in the sky (not counting the sun) -- just one star in a group of stars that form the constellation Canis Major, or “Greater Dog.” Here are some items you can borrow from the library for when it's too hot to be outside.
