Description

Buckle up for an exuberant ride - humming with energetic rhymes and whimsical, retro art from a masterful team. Black car, green car, nice car, mean car. Near car, far car. Whoa! Bizarre car! Ready to hit the road? Gear up for a non-stop parade of shapes, sizes, sounds and even smells - in a wild array of cars packed with big personalities, awesome features and eccentric passengers. Driven by Peter Stein's bouncing verse, Bob Staake's high-powered artwork merges vibrant colour and crisp, dynamic design with humour, warmth and whimsy. This rousing excursion is sure to thrill all fans of things that go, as well as aficionados of the illustrator's signature style. Fantastically energetic read-aloud about a perennially popular subject. Whimisical, retro illustrations by a hugely acclaimed illustrator. Peter Stein and Bob Staake are two exciting new additions to our list...watch out for more.
