But when it all goes suddenly wrong Amy is going to have to hit the road - and drive...

A message from the author, David Baddiel;
David Baddiel said: “So I’ve signed a new deal with Harper Collins to do four more kids books, because it turns out I really love writing them - and none more so than The Taylor Turbochaser, my new story about Amy Taylor, a disabled petrolhead 11 year old, who’s inventor best friend pimps her wheelchair-ride into the most incredible roadster - and then she and her gang take it on the wildest road trip. Hopefully, there’s something in there for everyone, from eight-year-old Jodie Kidds to 13-year-old Jeremy Clarksons.”
