Camper, Cathy, (author.). Raúl the Third, 1976- (artist.).

Summary:

Lupe Impala, El Chavo Flapjack, and Elirio Malaria love working with cars. You name it, they can fix it. But the team's favorite cars of all are lowriders - cars that hip and hop, dip and drop, go low and slow, bajito y suavecito. The stars align when a contest for the best car around offers a prize of a trunkful of cash - just what the team needs to open their own shop! ¡Ay chihuahua! What will it take to transform a junker into the best car in the universe? Striking, unparalleled art from debut illustrator Raul the Third recalls ballpoint-pen-and-Sharpie desk-drawn doodles, while the story is sketched with Spanish, inked with science facts, and colored with true friendship. With a glossary at the back to provide definitions for Spanish and science terms, this delightful book will educate and entertain in equal measure. --Vol.: Lowriders in Space -- Vol. 2: Lowriders to the Center of the Earth -- Vol. 3: Lowriders Blast from the Past -- Vol. 4: Lowriders to the Rescue From amazon.com.
