PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Ten brightly colored race cars Formula One racers, a windup toy lookalike, even a souped-up minivan vie for first place on their way to the finish line. Neither Dotlich (All Aboard!) nor Slack (Elecopter) is a stranger to vehicle-themed stories, and the book's bouncy rhymes and Matchbox-worthy vehicles (spoilers and bulging hot-red engines abound) combine to create a lively race with some tense back-and-forth moments ("Race car 4, all shiny red,/ rumbles, grumbles, pulls ahead"). Sturdy paper stock with rounded corners helps tailor the book to a younger crowd and should hold up to re-readings hinted at by the ending, which sets up a rematch: "All lined up, 10 in a row.../ red light, yellow light, green light... go!" Ages 2 5.
