5Wonderful children's book for motorcycle lovers  Apr 12, 2007
With vivid colors and simple, motion-filled illustrations, Clyde's fears of nighttime are soothed by his thoughts of the motorcycle ride he plans w/ his best bud, PaJim, the following day. I love the repeated chorus of Clyde's rumbling engine, steady and slow, "Po-ta-to...po-ta-to...po-ta-to." The text is rhythmic and charming.

5Favorite book for grandchildren  Apr 11, 2007
Our grandchildren love this book. It keeps their attention and they want to hear the story over and over. I would highly recommend this book for any preschool child. We look forward to many more adventures with Clyde and PaJim.

5We need this to be a series!  Mar 22, 2007
We searched high and low for children's books with a motorcycle theme and finally found this one. It is great! Our son and daughter love it. They especially love the sound of the rumbling motorcycle engine...potato, potato. I can't recommend this book enough, and we're hoping to see more of Clyde and PaJim with future book releases!

5Highly recommeded  Feb 27, 2007
The content of the text does an exceptional job of expressing friendship and trust between the characters, as well as the close connection between bike and rider.

The sentences are short and rhythmic and with the black typeface being surrounded by white, makes it great for beginning readers.

The illustrations are colorful and the expressions of the characters show sincere emotion.
