Race Team (Disney/Pixar Cars) (Step into Reading)

My children can be particular about the books they are willing to read. One of my kids is a huge Cars fan, and selected Race Team as an early reader. The book has held their interest enough to keep them reading until all of the words were mastered.Race Team is a “Ready to Read” book and targeted to pre-K to Kindergarten readers. This book features “big type and easy words, rhyme and rhythm, [and] picture clues.” It also tells a familiar story with the themes you'd expect from Cars: friendship and teamwork.Lightning McQueen is heading to a race and all of his car friends will help him prepare and travel to the race with him. This particular book does not contain rhyming words, but the pictures do provide clues. There are a few challenging words in Race Team, like “excited” and “reporters,” that will leave your child with a great sense of accomplishment when she can read them. “Ka-chow!”The text in the book is large and easy to read. There are 8-10 words per page in this 32 page book.Race Team was illustrated by the Disney Storybook Artists and stays true to the characters and scenes in cars.Many of the illustrations will have a familiar feel to fans of the first Cars movie: Lightning surrounded by reporters, Doc wearing his headset, McQueen with his tongue sticking out.When you're learning to read, it's nice to have books you enjoy. Luckily my kids have a wide variety of interests, so I get to listen to Cars books in addition to Princess and Barbie books!This is a fine “learn to read” book for the Cars fan in your home.

Great boook

This is a sweet little Disney Cars story that has easy to read words and phonics. Would highly recommend!

I can never have enough CARS books for my younger grades to read.

After discovering this story on Kinder Book Review, I knew my son would love it! And he did. Early reader who likes to sound out words that go along with his favorite movie.

This was purchased for my grand nephew's birthday and he loves it! Great way to prepare for reading readiness! Thanks!

That I know of, there are no Cars books available where Mack is on the cover and on many pages of the book. As Mack is my grandson's favorite Cars character, this makes this book his absolute favorite, because of the pictures.Not much plot. Not many words. Vibrant pictures. Truthfully, if it weren't my grandson's favorite book, I'd give it about 2 stars. I just don't feel like we should give a free pass to early readers. Early readers can and should be easy to read yet still interesting.

My son happy with his book. I recommend strongly if your son loves cars movies.
