(3) K-3 Illustrated by Scott Dawson. Rosenstock describes the life of Louise Smith, one of the first women racecar drivers. Louise loved to go "Fast! Faster! Flying!" and pursued any opportunity to race. The easy-to-read text applauds the spirit and independence of a young woman in a man's sport; an appended author's note adds details. Dynamic illustrations capture the 1940s and 1950s rural setting.
