Going Places

Written by Paul A. Reynolds & Peter H. Reynolds and Illustrated by Peter H. Reynolds

When everyone else races to build their go-kart the same way, Maya stops, thinks, and creates something nobody has ever seen before! This vibrant, imaginative story shows young builders that the best ideas come when you dare to ask, "What if there's a better way?" Get ready to dream big, think differently, and discover that the most exciting finish line is the one you design yourself!
