From School Library Journal
Grade 2–4—Jazz, Goose, Rita, Henry, and Rocky are back in another episode in this beginning-chapter-book sports series. Jazz is torn between her love of running and her love for her dad. A former track star himself, he can't stop giving her unwanted advice, coaching the coach, and even arguing with the referee during meets. Her friends take a backseat in this installment, but are still there offering support. Jazz and her dad work on their relationship, with Jazz understanding his love for her, and her dad learning his boundaries when it comes to track. Sports lovers will race through the story, picking up track and running tips along the way. Gane's black-and-white illustrations fully express the characters' emotions, struggles, and triumphs. Hicks sprints to the finish line with another winner.—
