As in My Fire Engine, Rex combines a child's fantasy with real facts in this satisfying and informative picture book. The child narrator, a race car driver, gives readers a behind-the-scenes look at an auto race and includes such details as the length of a pit stop and the number of times the racers circle the track. Illustrations and text are clear and will engage the intended audience.
