MOMMY, CAN YOU TELL ME A STORY ABOUT A CAR, 2nd Edition. FROM THE BOOK - "Once upon a time there was a car named Rusty, and his best friend was his husky. His husky's name was Trip, and he'd sit in the front seat like the captain on a ship. Rusty and his dog, Trip, love to do one thing together-race! In towns both big and small, Rusty, a flashy red car, and Trip speed toward the finish line. With the rush of the wind and the hope of winning in their hearts, Rusty and Trip round a corner with amazing speed. The car and his trusty Husky only want one thing-to stay in the lead. But suddenly something big is standing in their way. As Rusty skids to a stop, he realizes that only time will tell if he and Rusty can win the big race!"
