If I Built a Car

32 pp. | Dutton | May, 2005 | Trade ISBN 0-525-47400-5 $15.99
(3) K-3 While riding in his dad's car, Jack fantasizes about the car he'd like to design and build: a gadget-loving kid's playground of giant fins and retractable wings outside, with swimming pool and instant snack bar within--a robot pilot is optional for amphibious or airborne adaptations. The text's clever verse is humorously extended by the sixties-style illustrations.
Reviewer: Frieda F. Bostian
