Elephants and Donuts

Judy Renee Singer understands life and communications from many vantage points, all combining to give us the novel Still Life with Elephants. It’s a quirky title indicating something unique inside. It’s about teenage trauma that adults ignored, about adults being stuck in that trauma, and about animal assisted therapy that comes as an unexpected blessing. As a therapist and horse trainer, Judy Singer should know!

Elephants and donuts help begin to heal a woman of the teenage devastation she felt when two of her closest companions were killed in an unnecessary accident that ended her chances for the Olympics as well.  She was supposed to just get over it.  Well, she couldn’t.  Read more about the story and how elephants and horses can be used to assist in therapy and how they, too sometimes need human help –
