In Izzy the Corgi Meets the Aliens, Izzy is the loyal, clever, and cute corgi of Farmer Phil.  She works hard on the pleasant - but sometimes boring - farm in Cozy Corners.  All that changes when Izzy witnesses a cow-nabbing.  What will Izzy do to save the day?  In this book readers will reconnect with both Izzy and the Bad Bunch - only this time they're in alien form!  In Izzy the Corgi Meets the Aliens, Izzy learns that even heroes need a little extra help to save the day.

Kady is having a book release and signing party on Thursday, June 15th from 4 pm to 7 pm at R Boutique in Washington.  There will be party favors and drawings for free Izzy apparel as well as book readings and refreshments.
