"Miles puts on his seat belt. CHECK. Cranks the key. CHECK." Seated at the wheel of his yellow foot-powered car, Miles sets off on a lively, imaginative drive down the sidewalk to preschool. Short, present-tense sentences with plenty of sound effects help convey the action. Pleasing mixed-media collages show carefree Miles with hair blowing in the breeze (Mom's not far behind).
