About the Book

Twelve-year-old Ryan Edwards wants desperately to win his club's go-kart championship, and work his way up to win the Indianapolis 500 someday so he can earn his own "Baby Borg" Trophy - but apparently, someone has other ideas for him! Who is deliberately messing with his go-kart? Also why? and how? -- when it's carefully locked up every time? Ryan feels that it's nasty, mean Kyle Sampson, who is fastest on the track, and always puts Ryan down... With his father's great help, Ryan races hard, with exciting karting action, but each new mystery leads to another - the go-kart tampering, the mysterious go-kart champion Joe Yoshida -- and more. New questions lurk around each and every corner... Ryan's dog, Sparkplug, suspects trouble from the very beginning, and later discovers a vital clue. And what would Ryan do without his neighbor, Maria, who often jumps in to help? With the unique "snooping" skills of his nine-year-old neighbor, Timmy, who wants to be a de-tek-tiv someday, all the mysteries are finally solved. From the first chapter, Chasing The Checkered Flag - an intense blend of high-speed racing facts and fiction - will keep each reader reading, and guessing, until the very end.
About the Author: V-R-0-0-M! That was not Ryan Edwards zooming around a go-kart track this time, that was author Kay Presto doing the go-karting, to develop the excitement and intensity about racing that went into this novel. Kay has also done the writing and photography for the national-award-winning Young Adult book, "Power Basics of Auto Racing," and hundreds of national racing articles. She not only writes about these events -- she lives them -- to bring full enjoyment to the reader. That's why this gripping Middle Grade novel is being bought not only by young readers, but also by adults. And this novel is not just about racing, Kay has written three - count 'em, three - separate mysteries secretly intertwined in the racing throughout the book. Readers are encouraged to have fun seeing how fast they can solve all three. "Chasing The Checkered Flag" is listed by Amazon.com as the "No. 1 New Children's Motorsports Book." Kay would enjoy hearing from you at her website: KayPrestoauthor.wordpress.com.
