One of the better picture books for the young racing enthusiast. Includes good vocabulary (including some technical terms) and an engaging story.

Solid book about race cars. Has a (simple) anatomical diagram of race cars at the end of the book. Had tons of action, was easy to follow along. I don’t think there was enough conflict though. Rabbit could’ve had more obstacles or higher stakes.

This book is not my usual cup of tea in terms of subject matter, but it was a good book about race cars. The colors were nice and bright.

This story teaches you that sometimes there are struggles along the way on your journey to winning. Story is well thought out and characters are lovable. Instillations are colorful. Keeps your child's interest. I highly recommend this book.

I was given this book from QEB Publishing for a honest review.

After Rabbit zips up his overalls and climbs into the cockpit, Race Car revs its mighty engine and the great race begins. many more in the busy wheels series, not all by the same author; tractor, dump truck, fire truck
