A full-throttle fun with a big-hearted message…
A turbo-charged turtle learns the power of patience in Davis’ super-fun installment in the Super Yoneek Beast series. Turbo is no ordinary turtle. He does everything FAST! Whether it’s eating, talking, or playing, speed is his style. But some things don’t work at full throttle, like reading, jump rope, and ice cream. So, when he finds a book on building a mini race car, his excitement crashes into frustration. How can he learn something new if he can’t read fast enough? Davis captures the challenges of dyslexia with understanding and a clever racing metaphor. From his rapid-fire speech bubbles to his desperate attempts to dodge anything that requires patience, Turbo is fun to be with. The illustrations match Turbo’s energy, bursting with bright colors and motion that practically rev off the page. Young readers will zip through the pages, rooting for Turbo as he discovers that balance—not just speed—wins the race.
