a rabbit wishes he had a car
that would bring him really far

electric or gas which one to choose
either or? win or lose!

so after much thinking
and some comparing

he settles for a bike
in exchange for his trike

after rabbit solved his dilemma
he now wants to name the fella!

this short illustrated book has nice rhymes which inspired me to write some as well - a fitting summary for a book that's supposed to be for kids from ages 2 to a 102. as a bonus, the author has included 5 pages of black and white illustrations that can be printed out for coloring.

for something that did not cost a dime*
this book was quite worth my time!

read it to your kids out loud
or let them do it and be proud!

A short story in rhyme that won't cost you a dime. What a crime to not spend a dime.

Buying a car is such a hard decision. In this children's book, it is obvious that the main character has found that out firsthand. While weighing the pros and cons of owning a car, we are taken along a journey through the mind of the main character. Very cute ending as well.

If I had a Car reads like it was written by a child. However, if I was the art teacher, I'd dock the creator a grade for relying entirely upon cheesy clipart to illustrate his book.

If I had a car I would go to Florida to go visits Miami

I say it's in a fair line because some of the parts in the book it doesn't make sense to me and I'm only 12 years old and I don't understand it for nothing that's why I say it's in the fair line.thank you

First, the rabbit wished he had a car. Next, the rabbit traded his trike for a bike. Then, he couldn't decide what to name his bike. Last, the rabbit took a nap The End.

I chose this rating because it was a good book.
I think that the pictures could be a little better than that.

Teaches about helping the environment and the work it takes to have two types of cars and exploring other options like taking the bus and saving more money not having a car. Good read.
