From the Author
"When I opened my tutoring center I could not find enough interesting
reading material for my teenage students, especially the boys. So I
started writing short descriptions about car parts aimed at improving
reading comprehension. I used simple drawings to help students visualize
and associate the car parts with the words. Eventually I had enough
material for a complete book and, well, this is it!" |
