Scotty Goes Kayaking: The Adventures of Scotty the Rescue Dog (Scottys Adventures)

Born and raised in Springfield, Illinois, and then St. Louis, Missouri, Tammi has moved around the country for her husband, Kevin's marketing career. She has lived in Kansas, Tennessee, Kentucky, Texas, Minnesota, and Florida. The best way to adapt was to jump right in and participate in community clubs and classes. Upon moving to Dunedin, Florida, Tammi adopted a small black dog at a rescue event in the spring of 2016. She quickly learned he had a joy for life like no other dog she had ever owned. An artist by trade in advertising, photography, and illustration, Tammi started writing children's books to amuse and teach her grandchildren about fun outdoor activities. She captures the humor with each new experience to encourage young readers to try new activities. Many of the stories are Tammi's real-life experiences, portrayed by Scotty, the rescue dog along with his canine friends.
