  • Description

    My First Car Was Red is an exciting and hilarious picture book about brothers and cars – and one crazy car ride.

    Grandpa brought me a surprise. ‘For you,’ he said.
    It was rusty. Really rusty. But you could tell what it was – a little car! Exactly my size.
    ‘Diesel or gas?’ I asked Grandpa.
    ‘Sweat,’ he said.

    Your first car is always the best. And your first trip is unforgettable – even when it doesn’t go exactly to plan.
