Jeremy, you can't tell how fast a car is going to race just by its appearance, lectures his dad. But Jeremy's heart sinks as he wonders how his racecar will ever compete with the sleeker models designed to win the reigning title at the Pinewood Derby. This is the story of a young boy entering an annual scouting event, with limited skills and equipment, who along the way learns a valuable life lesson. Just because you are not equipped with the 'right' tools and assistance, does not mean you cannot succeed. From the moment that Jeremy receives his block of wood to carve, to the point when the racetrack slats are lowered, Jeremy embarks on a journey of self -discovery that results in the decision to race his car against all odds. The reader will find himself staring down the long, narrow tracks with a singular, sloping hill, cheering loudly for the underdog that lies within us all.
