A fast-paced, big-hearted story about learning differences, creative problem-solving, and discovering your own unique strengths.Meet Turbo the Turtle-a high-energy, race car-loving turtle who likes to do everything FAST!

When Turbo spots a book in a bookstore window titled How to Build a Mini Race Car, he knows he has to read it! The only problem? Reading is hard-and slow. With help from his wise and caring uncle, Turbo learns that just like building a race car, sometimes you have to use the brakes and slow down.
