In this collection of 36 poems (plus a new author's note at the end of the book), award-winning poet Janet Wong covers familiar territory: everything from parents as air bags ("in your face") to car shows to cop stops, hitchhiking to unlucky license plates, parking manners, crashing, insurance, and learning to drive. This book will remind drivers of all ages of their own funny and poignant driving stories and inspire you to write some of your own; a great gift for new drivers. Award notes: Behind the Wheel was an ABA "Pick of the Lists" and an ALA/YALSA "Quick Pick for Reluctant YA Readers."
