Thank you to Scholastic for the advanced review copy of this adorable book。 This easy reader with its adorable main character and lovely illustrations brings STEAM topics to the beginning readers。 Looking forward to sharing it with my beginning readers and hearing their opinions about the story

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。

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!

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!

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。 I love that Ace is a Black girl racecar driver, and that she can do everything needed to participate in the big race。 (I wonder if the author knew that the first female majority pit team just participated in the Indy 500 in 2021!)Veteran children’s author Brimner has teamed up with one of my favorite new illustrators。 His easy to read short sentenc Simple text and an adorable heroine make this early reader a stand-out。 Ace loves to race!
