The Lovereading comment:

Interest Age 9+ Reading Age 7+. Formula 1 is one of the most popular global sports with boys and girls all over the world eager to emulate their star.  For many children, however, until Lewis Hamilton became F1 World Champion this sport was seen by some as beyond their reach for no black person had ever got anywhere near.  Now you can read exactly how Lewis became successful.  From his humble beginnings on the go-kart tracks right through to becoming F1 World Champion, this is a great book for children with a younger reading age who want a short book with a mix of text and pictures on almost every page.
