Author Rebecca Caprara takes readers on a wild ride into girls' motocross racing. This novel in verse follows Eva and her new friend Cam as they try to qualify for the AMA AMATEUR NATIONAL MOTOCROSS CHAMPIONSHIPS.
Eva is only twelve. She has been riding bikes since she could grip the handlebars. Her father and his business partner were great riders until they tried a trick that went wrong, ending with Eva's father in a wheelchair. They are now her trainers and the mechanics for her motorcycle. They are also her number one fans.
Eva's mother is definitely not a fan. She wishes Eva would stop riding motocross and pick something more feminine. She is thrilled when Eva meets the new girl at school and strikes up a friendship. Unfortunately, Cam is also into motocross and has the same goals to ride into the championship.
The sport is rough and expensive, so Eva faces challenges that threaten her dreams to win and go professional. Readers will follow the ups and downs as Eva braves dangerous courses and challenging competition.
