Autorenporträt
Wendy Recktenwald has worked in the addictions and education field for over 30 years in different professional capacities. For the past 25 years she has worked for a college in Western New York and oversees all human resources and employee relations. Wendy holds a master's degree in Human Resources and Organizational Development, and a degree in Psychology. Wendy is a co-author of a workbook called "The First 45 Days," helping both new addiction counselors and patients organize and guide their recovery trajectory. Wendy has volunteered in animal rescue since 1983, and this book was an opportunity to meld both worlds. As a boots-on-the-ground rescue worker, she has been present at many large and small animal rescues over the years, and has noticed that children are acutely aware of the situations they live in. Both animals and children end up in foster care through no fault of their own. Wendy's family consists of a school counselor, a school social worker, a school psychologist, a police sergeant, and a wine maker. Family dinners often include discussions on how to make the world a better place. This book is the start of many discussions of how animals can help heal children.
