A boy racer learns that true racing requires more than attitude in Blue Mean1e, as he faces off against real speed-freaks.

In Blue Mean1e, readers are introduced to a daring character known as the Blue Meanie, a boy racer who believes he rules the streets with his flashy attitude and speed. However, his confidence is put to the test when he arrives at the drag strip, a place where true racing legends gather. Here, he quickly learns that being the best requires more than just bravado; it demands skill, respect, and a genuine love for racing. The vibrant illustrations by Colin Hardy bring the thrilling world of racing to life, captivating young readers and igniting their imaginations.

As the Blue Meanie faces off against seasoned racers, he must confront the reality of competition. The story explores themes of integrity, sportsmanship, and the importance of hard work.
