Product Description
I can pop a wheelie, I can touch the sky,
I can pedal backwards, I can really fly!

Sally Jean was born to ride. And her bicycle, Flash, is just about
her best friend. But one day something terrible – and wonderful
– happens. Sally Jean grows. Suddenly she finds herself too big
for Flash. What’s a Bicycle Queen to do? Finally, by collecting
old bicycle parts to make a new bike – and giving Flash to a
young friend who longs for a bigger bike of his own – she rides
again!

With exuberant art that’s just the right match for Sally Jean’s
newfound freedom, this joyous text celebrates growing up,
learning new skills, and giving back to the community.

5 out of 5 stars Kid's Love It   November 22, 2008
Jan (Redding, CA)
I got this book for my friend's kids. They are ages 3 and 5. The kids and parents love this book. This is a great addition to any library, but especially for families who ride. Thanks Amazon for this great recommendation. Another great recommendation that the kids love just as much as Gracie Goat's Big Bike Race - it got one of the kids to take off the training wheels and gave her enough confidence to get her ears pierced!

This is my 3 year-old's current favorite - it's got it all: Bike riding action, singing (we made up tunes to the rhymes), construction, drama...sharing. Lots of fun; it's the most requested bedtime reading, by far. We originally got it from the library, but have decided to invest in a copy of our own. If your child is a bike-riding fan, this book is a must-have.


5 out of 5 stars She's done it again, another great kids book!   April 25, 2006

My favorite children's book author, Cari Best captures the independence and creativity of children with her wonderful language. I'd been waiting for this book to be released and I certainly wasn't disappointed! My five year old declared -- I love this book!
