Revver the Speedway Squirrel: The Big Race Home

Description

Revver is a little squirrel with big dreams... to drive a race car! Now that he has secured his place on the race squad, there are so many new things to see and explore - and so many lessons to learn. Tire-changer Bill and the team have grown very fond of Revver, despite his troublemaking. But when the team travels to the airport for a faraway race, Revver's intense curiosity distracts him and leads him to get lost. By the time he finds the gate again, he realizes the plane has taken off without him! Will Revver find his way back to the team in time? And if he does, will they still welcome him, or has he worn out his welcome as the very first speedway squirrel? Sherri Duskey Rinker, author of the mega-bestselling Goodnight Goodnight Construction Site series, offers another hilarious and heartwarming story about this memorable new middle-grade character, perfect for fans of Ralph S. Mouse and The Mouse and the Motorcycle.
