Tale-Waggers™
Begun in 2002, our committee works to improve literacy by letting children
read to dogs in a quiet setting. The first such program in Mid-Michigan, sessions are in schools, libraries, and by invitation.
Look for a Tale-Waggers™
session at the Mt. Pleasant Veterans Memorial Library and Alma Public Library several times a year.
Formed by MPMKC in 2002, we officially changed the name
of this committee in 2005. Each Tale-Waggers™ kid
receives a free book at the end of a 4-week session. More than $1200 worth of books have been given to community children
since 2002, through this committee. For background information on Tale-Waggers™ click here, or Contact Chairperson: Alice
Jenicke.
