Nancy Lee Badger Presents Children's Author Renée Filippucci-Kotz

A fellow North Carolina writer has stopped by to share her latest book. Please give a nice welcome and take a moment to leave a comment. Better yet…buy the book! Take it away, Renée.

Thanks for having me Nancy. Cody to the Rescue is my third picture book. While the story is fiction, Cody and Missy were two of our wonderful pets.

I have just updated my website, and you can hear audio excerpts for each book. So check it out!

Book Blurb

Cody had an important job at the railroad: keeping an eye out for anything unusual on the tracks.  It was something he just naturally started doing from the first day Engineer Bob brought him to the railroad after adopting him from the local animal shelter.  One morning Cody noticed something on the tracks just before Engineer Bob was ready to start the train to move it to the shop for repairs. What was it?  Can he alert Engineer Bob in time?  

Join Cody and Engineer Bob as they make a new discovery and follow along as they decide what to do with their find.

Excerpt from Cody to the Rescue

     Cody scouted the railroad tracks as he did every morning. He made it his job to make sure the tracks were clear. On this bright summer day the wind blew gently through the trees, and Cody had never been happier. 

   “Hi ho, Cody,” called Engineer Bob, as he climbed aboard the locomotive. “Let’s roll. We need to move this locomotive to the shop for repairs so it will be ready for the train rides this weekend.”

   “Woof,” said Cody, his tail wagging.

   Cody, a lemon spotted pointer, loved Engineer Bob ever since he adopted Cody from the animal shelter. Cody began to walk toward the locomotive when, out of the corner of his eye, he spotted something farther down the tracks. He decided to investigate.
