Lupe Impala, El Chavo Flapjack, and Elirio Malaria love working with
cars. You name it, they can fix it. But the team’s favorite cars of all
are lowriders cars that hip and hop, dip and drop, go low and slow,
bajito y suavecito. The stars align when a contest for the best car
around offers a prize of a trunkful of cash just what the team needs to
open their own shop! ¡Ay chihuahua! What will it take to transform a
junker into the best car in the universe? Striking, unparalleled art
from debut illustrator Raul the Third recalls ballpoint-pen-and-Sharpie
desk-drawn doodles, while the story is sketched with Spanish, inked with
science facts, and colored with true friendship. With a glossary at the
back to provide definitions for Spanish and science terms, this
delightful book will educate and entertain in equal measure.
Low Riders in Space Book Reviews
Like a Chitty-Chitty Bang Bang taking place in the southwest US (or
is it northwest Mexico). Upbeat fantastical humor and imagery. The
colorful, high-energy drawings keep the fantasy alive and driving
forward. There is no surprise at the end, but it doesn’t matter, these
are like the day dreams of every kid as they tighten the bolts on their
bicycle or hammer together two boards in the basement. “What if I could
make this thing fly…”
Seems at a level for older elementary school age to read themselves
or younger elementary to have read to them. Or, jackpot, if your middle
or high school-er to reads it to the younger kids of your posse. The
spectacular drawing will keep even the youngest paying attention even if
they don’t understand all the words and ideas the first time through. Get online Low Riders in Space today.
