Fast Wheels! series. These books profile specific types of high-speed vehicles. The leveled texts should appeal to reluctant readers, who will be drawn to the topic and the (small-size) photos. The books are a combination of description and history, with emphasis on special features and anecdotes. "Smokin' Facts" pages highlight unusual stats, notable individuals, and oddities. The random organization of information, however, is unfortunate. Reading list, websites. Glos., ind., The Horn Book Guide Spring 2014
