20 Great Race Cars (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798399287607)

Which race car had six wheels? Which Ferrari sold for US$70 million? Which was the first Formula 1 car to be raced by a woman? Which famous sportscar won 25 US races in a row? And which machines are known as Godzilla or the Batmobile?

20 Great Race Cars provides the answers to all these questions, and many more! Written for kids who love cars by an adult who loves cars, it features photos, fun facts and engaging, bite-sized stories about some of the greatest race cars ever made. Each chapter focuses on a different car, from Formula 1 to NASCAR, IndyCar, sportscar and touring car racing, in the USA, Europe and Asia. Also listed are top speeds, famous race wins and the Race it! sections, where kids can find out about the best Hot Wheels or other toy versions of each of these real-life racers.

The book is written in a friendly, readable style for children aged around 7-13 years old. It's printed in full colour throughout and features dozens of photographs, many previously unpublished.
