HONK! HONK! TOOT! TOOT!

Where are you racing off to, Hugo? And why is there an enormous traffic jam?

With a huff, a puff, a whoosh, and a swerve, on Hugo's dash to his destination, he zips and zooms past all sorts of vehicles in a muddle. Full of energy and zest, with lots of details to spot, this story romps along to its very funny ending.

Talented Storylines Gavin Bishop Award recipient Kaye Julian's illustrations are a perfect match for award-winning author Kyle Mewburn's joyous story in Go, Scooter, Go!
