Summary:

"Spunky Sarabeth loves working on cars with her dad. She loves everything about cars. She loves the way the engines sometimes roared like lions and other times purred like kittens. She loves seeing sports cars that were sleek and fast like cheetahs and boxy SUVs that trundled along like elephants. When Sarabeth's gran comes to visit, she brings with her a lot of strong beliefs about how little girls should behave. But when her grandma's car breaks down and Sarabeth is the only one who can help, her grandma might have to change her perspective"-- Provided by publisher.

  • Penguin Putnam
    A picture book that celebrates doing your own thing in the face of society's expectations . . . and a sweet story about a girl, her dad, her disapproving grandma and, most importantly, cars.

    Sarabeth loves cars.

    She loves the way the engines sometimes roar like lions and other times purr like kittens. She loves seeing sports cars that are sleek and fast like cheetahs and boxy SUVs that trundle along like elephants.

    And most of all, she loves to help her dad at his garage.

    Sarabeth’s grandmother doesn’t approve. She thinks little girls should play with dolls and wear dresses and always have clean hands. But when her car starts grumbling like a walrus instead of purring like a kitten, who will be there to help?

    A delightful story about an independent and spirited girl who has no time for the limitations that society wants to put on her, and a grandma who gets the opportunity to change her way of thinking.
