Simple text and an adorable heroine make this early reader a stand-out. Ace loves to race! Not only that, but she can fix her car and paint it, too.

The start of a new series in the Acorn line by Scholastic.Ace works hard to put her car together for the race. Readers see each step of the process in simple to follow sentences. On race day, we see the triumphs and challenges involved.Terrific for lower elementary readers who like plenty of action.
Love, love the illustrations!
Ace builds her own go-kart, and prepares to enter the big race, but when she takes her cart out for a test drive, Ace discovers that something is not quite right about her car. Ace trouble shoots the problem, and it's off to the races for Ace.
Perfect for early readers! Ace is a great problem solver and the readers can follow along easily. There is a nice rhythm to the book that makes it even easier to read. Ace is inspiring without trying to hard! Love to see diversity in racing!
The text is fine, but I am absolutely in the pocket for illustrator Kaylani Juanita. She is SO TALENTED!! She elevates everything she works on!
