About
When Charlie turns a plain cardboard box into a zippy new car, he can't wait for Mama to have the first ride. He adjusts the mirror, checks to be sure there is enough gas, and reminds Mama to buckle up. Then off they go-REV REV VROOM! There are places to visit and bumps along the way. There is even a traffic jam! By the time they return home, Mama is exhausted, but Charlie can't wait for her nap to be over so he can drive her someplace else.

"The softly colored illustrations show the gleeful mother-son pair exploring every inch of the house in the cardboard car. The comfortable home and its familiar furnishings are transformed by Charlie's conversations into a setting for modest adventures that mimic adult behaviors."
