Race!

(3) PS Illustrated by Edwardian Taylor. Colorful, energetic illustrations depict a small red racecar struggling to win a race. Spirited rhymes and sound words make this ode to car-racing suited for reading aloud ("SLIP! SLAM! SQUEAL! SOAR! / Through the tunnel! Thunder! Roar!"). A surprise ending reveals it's been little boy Maxwell's imaginative backyard play all along, and there's no doubt as to which car will ultimately win.
