A Kid to the Rescue


Book Description

Shannon Vanderhoff learned early that everything in life is fleeting. That's why she won't let herself get attached to anything. Or anyone. Not the traumatized little boy in her care. And definitely not art therapist Greg Hawkins, who seems as determined to care for her as he is to heal her nephew. Like a character from one of his comic books, Greg has swooped in to their rescue, empowering the child…and loving the woman. But it takes the two of them to turn the boy's life around. And it takes a kid with special powers all his own to create a loving family.

Train Track Rescue


Book Description

Train Track Rescue (TV Episode #208) Sixteen-year-old Joe Terry of Merced, California was sitting on his front porch when he noticed two small neighbor children playing on the nearby railroad tracks. Although hearing-impaired, Joe heard a faint train whistle. He reached the children and scooped them off the tracks only an instant before the train reached them, in a rescue so close that the train engineer stopped down the track to report that he'd hit several children! Also included in Vol 10: Up In Flames (TV Ep #203) Brothers Kris and Kelly Cheater of Stoughton, Saskatchewan (Canada) were marking a field for their father, who was flying a crop-dusting plane. To their horror, their father's small plane caught on a power line, flipped upside down and crashed -- then burst into flames. The two boys had to pull the burning plane apart with their bare hands to save their father. Hero Babysitter Twelve-year-old Katrina Attaman of Anaheim, California was playing outside when she heard the woman next door scream for help. She ran over to discover that her neighbor's two-year-old son -- a child for whom she often babysat -- was at the bottom of the swimming pool. Katrina used skills she'd learned in her Red Cross Babysitter's Course to administer artificial respiration until the baby started breathing again.
