<p>'Billed as "An anti-car book for a new generation", The Little Driver is a gem, easily negotiating the many dead ends encountered when questioning car culture. Like many eight-year-old boys, Joe is obsessed with cars, but when his wish suddenly comes true he embarks on a journey he wasn't expecting. Full of wit and dry observation, much of the beauty of The Little Driver is in the way it captures the visceral thrill and smug pride Joe feels when first behind the wheel of his shiny red sports car, and then peels away the layers as Joe's encounters with selfish drivers, traffic jams, pollution and road building slowly force him to question his love of the automobile.'
