“With its slick images, bright color
scheme, and straightforward text,
this series should appeal to future car
lovers. Presenting information clearly
and concisely, each book is filled with
descriptive passages that note each
subject’s history, parts, and future. Facts,
such as cost, fastest speed, and miles per
gallon, present the audience with finer
details that are relevant and, at times,
jaw-dropping. For example, a Formula 1
engine can cost more than $7 million.
Supplementing informational text such
as this are sidebars, time lines, and charts
that lend visual interest and bite-sized
facts, while the use of blues, oranges, and
yellows throughout give each volume a
comic book vibe. What really stands out
are the vibrant photos of the various cars
and motorcycles. Close-up looks at shiny
chrome and glossy paint jobs are a visual
feast and will have intermediate readers
oohing and aahing from one page to the
next. VERDICT Recommended for first
purchase, especially in libraries where
books about transportation vehicles are
always checked out.”
