Black car, green car, nice car, mean car. Near car, far car. Whoa! Bizarre car! Ready to hit the road? Gear up for a non-stop parade of shapes, sizes, sounds and even smells in a wild array of cars packed with big ersonalities, awesome features and eccentric passengers.

This rousing excursion is sure to thrill all fans of things that go, as well as aficionados of the illustrator's signature style.

Industry Reviews
Few present day illustrators convey energy with more goofy retro zeal than Bob Staake, and he puts his skill to full use in Cars Galore, a madcap paean to the improbable possibilities of the automobile. The combination of Mr Staake's off kilter drawings and Peter Stein's zippy, faintly Seussian rhymes is likely to please.
--Wall Street Journal

Like a revved up hybrid of Richard Scarry's Cars and Trucks From A to Z and P D Eastman's Go Dog Go, this book for those obsessed with all things automotive will also make them laugh. The rhyming text is upbeat and offbeat.
--The New York Times
