Zoom!

By Jennifer Charrette and Marcia Kinne

A three-year-old rider scoots his push bike confidently through the mountains and mud, puddles and rain, and through a desertscape studded with cactus. He proudly puts on his favorite helmet as he rides with his dog, with his brother, and with his entire family. Zoom is an adventure book suitable for children ages 6 months to 4 years, filled with the colorful artwork of Kellie Day and the fun, endearing rhymes created by its authors, Jennifer Charrette and Marcia Kinne. Aimed at showing children what it means to live bravely and passionately, it follows the story of an active, happy youngster and his adventures on a balance bike- a type of first bike that kids propel by running rather than pedaling. The book sports a foreword from professional bicycle champion George Hincapie. Zoom is written to honor Axel Charette, a young boy murdered while his family was vacationing in Mexico. Zoom is a tribute, and celebrates Axel's memory by helping other families to discover and embrace bicycling as a family activity--and a way to keep moving forward through life.
