A sequel to earlier motorcross novels, this sees Lee Parnaby feted by Namura, anxious to offer their bike - and attendant publicity - to a promising young rider. The usual mix of family rivalry, accurate race descriptions and cliff-hanging chapter endings will speed all but the most reluctant readers through this short (122 pages). But entertaining, book. Girls feature, too - to widen the audience or as a nod to equal opportunities? The illustrations, however, are awful - childish, and detract from what is otherwise a carefully marketed package.
