Megafast cars
John Farndon
- Reading
- Pause around cars, records and design and ask how the book presents it.
- Themes
- Cars, records and design: The book profiles individual cars and their records or feats, alongside design facts such as wind-tunnel testing and scissor doors. Vehicle profiles and records are paired with facts about design technology, and energetic language makes speed feats vivid.
- Worth knowing
- Speed is presented with energetic language, including an ‘adrenaline rush’; consider whether that celebratory emphasis fits your reader’s interests.
