Booktalk #1

Cars are always changing.  Can you use your imagination to think about what cars will look like in the future?  This book is full of way out cars.  What is your favorite?  The bathtub car?  The eel-ectric car?  I know my favorite is the giant bookmobile car!

Booktalk #2

Two of children’s poetry’s most prolific and entertaining writers pair up to bring you a collection of wild and wonderful poems about cars.  But you won’t see these cars on the highway!  The poets and illustrator Jeremy Holmes have created a fantastical world full of imaginary automobiles like the bathtub car, the banana split car and the eel-ectric car.  Filled with word play, rollicking rhymes and illustrations that are even wackier than the poems that inspired them, this book is impossible to read only once!  (Booktalk by Pennsylvania Young Reader’s Choice Award Committee)
