Mike and the Bike "This is a boy whose name is Mike. This is Mike’s pride and joy—his bike…"
So begins the inspiring tale of a boy, his best friend, and the adventurous relationship that many children begin when they are young and continue the rest their lives!
Illustrated in a retro-contemporary style, Mike and The Bike rhymes its way through Mike’s choosing of his favorite toy - his bike (of course!) - and follows him off on adventures around the world and back home, where he goes to bed wearing his helmet, ready for the next day!
Mike and The Bike is the first children’s book written by Grammy Award–winning guitarist and songwriter, avid cyclist and riding partner of Lance Armstrong, Michael Ward.
Mike and the Bike came into being, appropriately enough, while Michael cycled near his home in Los Angeles.
Includes a foreword by 6-time Tour de France winner Lance Armstrong and a 30-minute CD with music by Michael and his son, Tennessee Ward, plus a special musical narration of Mike and the Bike by the "Voice of Cycling," Phil Liggett.
Customer Review: good kids book
I got this book for tour de france week at my preschool teaching job. The kids liked the book. They thought it was cool that mike went all over the world and still came back home. I liked the cd but i didnt use it when i read it to them. Perfect for a bike racing or riding fan, for your kids of course! you should definetly get this one.
Customer Review: Great book for cycling enthusiasts!
This book is so cute - very cool illustrations and it’s a very cute story, too. Both of my kids love it and my husband loves reading to them about his favorite sport!
