These books are easy for adults and kids alike to read and are complemented by several illustrations each chapter that enhance the reading experience. Kit Rosewater has done it again with this wonderfully inclusive third helping of The Derby Daredevils. Tomoko uses her wilderness skills and navigational know-how to lead them home and her calm demeanor to keep everyone feeling safe.

And it means meeting a bunch of new kids, which isn’t exactly a strength for shy, introverted Tomoko. She’s got all the gear and the skills she needs for two weeks in the great outdoors.īut roller derby camp isn’t in the great outdoors.
