Mia's Cheetah by Bothe, Amelia

Buckle up for the best rumpus since Where the Wild Things Are, when a girl discovers the magic waiting just outside her car window.

Mia is not excited about the long, boring drive to Nana's house.

Too many miles. Too much waiting. Too little fun.

But then her dad lets her in on a secret game and everything changes.

Now, the trip that started out so dull suddenly feels much too short! And when they finally get to Nana's house, Mia discovers this special tradition runs deeper than she ever guessed.

With playful, not-to-be-missed illustrations and a tender family twist, Mia's Cheetah celebrates the power of imagination waiting just outside our windows.
