CNKP offers humane education at John Wister Elementary School

Following a visit from Ms. Sara and Reggie, we received this lovely email from Reggie himself.

Dear Ms. Brown's 5th grade class,

Thank you for welcoming me into your classroom! I hope you liked watching me perform my tricks. Thank you for being so gentle and nice to me, even when I forgot my manners and got a little stinky. I think you're the most fun, polite, and smart group of kids I have ever met. I had never been to 5th grade before, and I wasn't sure what to expect, but you showed me that John Wister Elementary School's 5th graders are some of the nicest people in all of Philadelphia. I hope my visit showed you that pit bulls can be great dogs when treated with kindness. Have a fun holiday break and I hope to meet you again!

Sincerely, Reggie

After our visit with author, Judith Kristen and our beloved Henley, we received this lovely letter from the pair.**

Dear Lindsay and kids and everyone at Wister Schoo!! I was so happy to meet everyone at Wister School yesterday! WHAT a sweet, kind, and caring bunch of teachers and students! I LOVE YOU GUYS!!!!! My heart was filled with "Wister" happiness and so, when Mom and I got home, I just had to tell the cats: Holly, Rose, Cynthia, Ned, and Mookie, and my other two dog friends, Cassie and Abbie all about you too! Keep doing good things for our animal friends and you will see the goodness come back to you in many, many ways! Love to you all, Henley! P.S. Thanks for my travel bag and the shirts and the mug... I had some water out of it this morning! :)I feel really special! ((((THANK YOU)))) I will always hold a special place in my heart for you.

XOXOXO,Hen.
