Champ and the Warning Light

By Kevin Tarpley

A family beach trip. An unexpected warning light. Two tools that save the day.

Phil and his family are heading to the beach when a yellow light appears on the dashboard. What does it mean? Is something wrong with the car?

Fortunately, Champion Tire is nearby-and Champ is ready to help

Follow along as Champ identifies the tire-pressure warning light, checks all four tires, and discovers a loose panel that needs attention. With a tire-pressure gauge, a Phillips screwdriver, and careful work, he helps the family get back to their beach-day adventure.

Champ and the Warning Light turns an everyday automotive problem into a story children can read, color, and learn from. Young readers discover:

What tire pressure means and how a gauge measures it.Why a tire can need air without looking flat.What valve stems and wheel wells are.How a Phillips screwdriver turns a matching screw.Why warning lights deserve attention from a responsible grown-up.

Created by Kevin Tarpley, a real repair shop owner and father of three, the Champ's Garage series began with a simple goal: teaching his own children about cars, tools, and the value of skilled work.

With full-color covers, coloring pictures on the left, large story text on the right, and short "Learn with Champ" lessons, this book makes learning about cars an adventure families can share.

For curious children ages 4-8.

Real tools. Real skills. Lessons that last.
