PS
Five mice sit in their crayon-colored racecars at the starting line. The scene then degenerates from Formula One to demolition derby as the cars meet disaster at every turn. The jaunty narrative, with minimal text and rough-and-ready digital illustrations, conveys suspense, poignancy, heroism, and exhilaration. Spacious book design, in-your-face typography, dynamic compositions, and speedy pacing add up to a spirited read-aloud.
