Waggin' Tales" is a cooperative effort between Amy Rowen and her nine-year old niece, Tyla Marie Rowen.
Amy had the all-American childhood, and the consistency of dogs in her family prevails in her memories. Tyla Marie Rowen is carrying on the family tradition in appreciation and affection for dogs.
Together they have created an enchanting story, written from the narrative perspective of the family dog, Julie. "Waggin' Tales" helps children deal with issues of growing up, such as non-traditional family environments, resistance to rules, the loss of loved ones, the injustice of discrimination, and the values of fun as well as work. Skill-building reading retention and grammar exercises can be found at the end of each chapter, and a vocabulary listing at the end of the book defines and expands knowledge. A wonderful story that will be read, shared, and hopefully, handed down for generations to come.
