Kisah evolusi penciptaan kereta yang menarik meskipun ringkas. Sesuai untuk bacaan anak-anak dan bapa anak yang baru lahir seperti saya kerana tidak sempat menelaah buku yang lebih sesuai dengan peringkat usia!

The book is brilliant! I bought it because my nephew loves cars and thought it'd be a good read for him, I ended up flipping through the pages finding new information about cars and other things! Such as the Automobile Association was formed by drivers who wanted to avoid speed traps set by police. Also, Porsche started because of Hitler. Good read.

I found this book most exciting and the information was very knowledgeable. I got to know a lot about the cars in ancient times.

I felt very happy to find the facts how the idea of making a car came to the mind of genius..........
