CARS: The Junior Novelization (Junior Novel) (Cars movie tie in)

Lightning McQueen is a hot-shot young race car on his way to becoming a national champion . . . until he gets impounded in Radiator Springs. Now McQueen can only spin his wheels, thinking about the big race he’s going to miss. But if McQueen can open his heart to small town life, the townsfolk of Radiator Springs just might teach him that being a champion has more to do with heart than crossing the finish line first.
