Kart Competition

By Jake Maddox and Jesus Aburto

Ted is sure his week at Kart Camp is going to be the best week ever. But when Jake, son of a famous race-car driver, shows up at camp, Ted's plans are thrown off track. Ted is convinced Jake is using unfair advantages to win races. Will Ted let his bias get the best of him in the race to the finish line?

Jake Maddox

Who is Jake Maddox? Athlete, author, world-traveler – or all three? He has surfed in Hawaii, scuba-dived in Australia, and climbed the mountains of Peru and Alaska. His books range from the most popular team sports to outdoor activities to survival adventures and even to auto racing. His exploits have inspired numerous writers to walk in his footsteps – literally! Each of his stories is stamped with teamwork, fair play, and a strong sense of self-worth and discipline. Always a team-player, Maddox realizes it takes more than one man (or woman) to create a book good enough for a young reader. He hopes the lessons learned on the court, field, or arena and the champion sprinter pace of his books can motivate kids to become better athletes and lifelong readers.
