Great book!
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 15 years ago
This is such a fascinating book! I sure learned a lot while reading it to a child. It's obviously the story of Henry Food, written in a comic style book. Very seriously funny in parts, but the way it is presented, kids never forget how he actually successfully invented the car for everyone to afford. Great actual photos of the first car race of Henry too. Great, great book, highly recommend!
Basically informative book

My six-year-old asked about how cars were invented, and we purchased this "easy reader" as an introduction. My six-year-old and four-year-old sons like the story. At the conclusion of the (abbreviated and simplified) account of Henry Ford and the Model T, there is an historic photo of Henry Ford which is pretty neat.
History for kids!

Keeping interesting reading for a beginning reader is always a challenge. Henry Ford's First Race was a winner, especially with our six year old son. The cover is now curled from repeated reading.
