Books with title Race Cars

For as long as there have been cars, people have wanted to race them. Motor racing takes many forms, from children's go-karts to souped-up family cars and racing trucks, to the exciting world of Formula 1 racing. The name 'Ferrari' make people think of the famous original red racer, but what do the latest Ferraris look like? Do they come in colors other than red? The thrill and action for racing is captured in the detailed pictures in this book, such as a close-up view of a racing car cockpit and engine. Other spreads show how to modify the family car so you can race it on a track, what happens at a pit stop, new safety features for tracks and drivers and much, much more. And what about the problems you'd face if you took your Formula 1 racing car to the supermarket.

This nonfiction title explores the various colors of racecars that can be seen on a day spent at the races. Readers go behind the scenes at the racetrack to learn what the different colored flags mean during a race. Other concepts such as differentiating standings in a race and identifying racetrack workers are also highlighted in the text. Color associations are a recurring theme throughout the title to meet early elementary curriculum standards. Full-color photographs bring the information to life and help early readers make connections with the text.
