Once upon a time there was a Princess... who made a pit stop. While the Birds and Beasts changed her tires, her Fairy Godmother told her she was in last place! With just one lap left! She might as well give up!
Give up? Not THIS princess! Instead, she hit the gas!
Join Her Royal Highness in the driver's seat for a mad dash to the finish! As the announcer narrates her incredible drive, you'll get to see appearances from fairy tale favorites including the Tortoise and the Hare, the Frog Prince, and ALL of the Wicked Witches. Readers will cheer when she wins the day — and sets off to take on the next big challenge! This rollicking mash-up of race cars and royalty is a true celebration of both girl power and horsepower.
"Practically every major nursery rhyme character makes a cameo appearance: 'She blew the doors off the Big Bad Wolf and smoked the Three Little Pigs.' Rocket-fueled panel artwork by Santat (After the Fall) gleams like carbon fiber. His rendering of Angleberger’s (the Origami Yoda series) inspired injection of sports-network energy into fairyland produces a shot of gleeful adrenaline whose only fault, like the best of things, is that it’s over too soon." — Publishers Weekly
