AUDIENCE APPEAL: AVERAGE
Mason and the other kids in Car Club don’t have much in common but they do love cars. Each week they meet with Ms. Gritt who teaches them about car engines, repair, and maintenance. With their new found knowledge, they are ready to hit the road in their well-tuned rides.
This is an interesting series. Each book is written and illustrated by a different author and contains factual information along with activities or projects the reader can do. It’s fiction because the characters and situations are made up. It’s non-fiction because it gives accurate, applicable information. And it’s a graphic novel, which are wildly popular with tweens and teens nowadays. My only complaint is that the dialogue is a bit contrived, but the author uses it to move the story forward and give the reader information. I liked the illustrations in this book. Best suited for high school or middle school students.
