The Wheels on the Race Car

(4) PS Illustrated by James Warhola. Enlisting the structure of "The Wheels on the Bus," the text tells us that the racecar's wheels go "round and round," its engine goes "vroom-vroom-vroom," etc., until finally the checkered flag goes "swish-swish-swish." Although the text (like the song) can be numbingly repetitious, the illustrations, featuring dogs, hippos, and penguins battling it out for first place, are engaging.
