Little Red Racing Car's Night-Time Ride

About the Book

The Little Red Racing Car finds excitement in the colorful events of the world just outside his home.  Friendly little animals admire him and ultimately celebrate his remarkable achievement in the 500 Race.  Young children will identify with the Little Red Racing Car’s inner drive to be a winner, cheered on by the gentle words of encouragement from all the loving creatures around him.  This is the first in a series of the Little Red Racing Car’s adventure books.
