Grade 4-8–A superhero with a hidden identity, an archenemy, a serial graphic novel, and NASCAR racing! What more could you ask for? The serial plots are crammed into 28 busy pages per episode, but kids–possibly reluctants–won't mind a bit. They'll follow young broom-pusher and gofer Dashiell James, transformed into lead driver for Team Flatstock, and the most supercharged pit crew in NASCAR history around the final curve headed for the checkered flag (but don't forget that archenemy shouldering up on the inside!). Also offered, along with official blessings from NASCAR, are instructions for drawing super-driver Jimmy Dash and archenemy Jack Diesel's zippy #63, plus a clue to a Web site for more NASCAR fun. Eye-catching and colorful, with super-quick pit stops to boot.
