From New York Times bestselling author Beth Ferry and Geisel Award Honoree Matt Myers, comes a gentle and uplifting new classic about a race car tire that's been cast aside but finds joy and meaning through an unexpected new adventure and friend. Perfect for fans of Little Blue Truck and The Yellow Bus.
Flyer McTire is at home on the racetrack. He zooms, he revs, he speeds—and he never gets tired. But when one day he's fired and sent to the dump, he starts to feel that maybe there’s no place for him anymore.
That is, until he has a chance encounter with a young boy. It’s no racetrack but, maybe there’s a better, more important job waiting for him and his best race is still to be won!
This delightful and tender story about embracing change and adapting to new situations from New York Times bestselling author Beth Ferry and Geisel Honor-winning illustrator Matt Myers will keep readers' engines revving for repeated readings.
Beth Ferry lives by the beach in New Jersey where she loves scanning the shore for sea glass. In addition to sea glass, Beth has found countless shells, mermaid purses, and a few sand dollars. She often finds tennis balls and brings them home to the delight of her two bulldogs. Through the years, Beth has also picked up boatloads of trash. She is the author of many picture books including Stick and Stone, The Scarecrow, and The Peddler of Puddles. Sea Glass Girls is her first novel in verse. You can learn more at bethferry.com
