In this funny early graphic novel from Kelly Collier’s Steve the Horse series, Steve is sure he’s the fastest and best—until the annual “Race-a-thon” changes to a relay race! Now he has to work with a turtle, a duck, and a snail. How can he possibly win? Steve decides to become the Best Coach Ever and train his slow teammates.

Readers will laugh as Steve learns that teamwork and sportsmanship matter more than winning. With its humor, lively art, and positive message, this story is a great pick for classroom discussions on character, cooperation, and what it really means to succeed.
