Speed freak / Fleur Beale


What makes Archie Barrington get up in the morning is the thought of kart racing. Although he's only fifteen Archie is a top driver and he's planning on missing his school exams by qualifying for the Challenge series in Portugal! It's all go, but there are a few things he has to get sorted first ... like his arch-rival Craig and his new stepbrother Felix. Even if you know nothing about karting, Archie and his mates tell a great story and get you quickly up to speed with the whole business.

Who would enjoy this? This book will mostly appeal to boys but as the story reveals, there are plenty of girls who like karting too and would therefore be interested in what Archie and co get up to.
