My Story
Mary Aggas calls upon her 18 years volunteering at an equine therapeutic riding center in Arizona to write Tyler’s story. She is certified as an Instructor of Riders with Disabilities by the Certified Horsemanship Association. She is also a member of the Professional Association of Therapeutic Riding, International.
​
She cherishes her time working with special needs riders on the “big” horses, and coordinates a program using miniature horses and donkeys to bring joy and fun to special education classes in schools and senior living facilities. She loves hanging out with horses and finds mucking stalls to be therapeutic!
​
Mary has written this picture book with the hope it will find its way into the hands of children and their families who can benefit from learning about this valuable form of therapy.
