Book Description

July 2003
This is the only fully illustrated children's book available about the 66 year old All-American Soap Box Derby.

It includes the history about how it all began, and tells the story of a family finding out how to become involved in the home-built racecar event. It is beautifully illustrated in fully colored watercolor paintings.

Find out how the children are truely treated like champions at this All-American event. Learn about how other countries like New Zealand, Japan, and Germany also participate each year. Children make lasting friendships all across our great country and the world. There are also some physics lessons that have to be solved when the children try to make their racecar faster than all of the others.

It is so exciting, that even NASCAR drivers, movie stars and Olympic Athletes go to the event every year.

"This is such a wonderful event for children, that I wanted to help other children find out about it!" says the author and illustrator Kathy g. Johnson

This review is from: I Want to Go to... The All-American Soap Box Derby Race (Paperback)
We really enjoyed this book. We have been looking for a book about soap box derby racing and finally we found this one. It has really colorful illustrations that the kids enjoyed. It tells everything about how to build a car and start racing. I love the ending. What a great book!
