Drones (Off to the Races)

Drones have taken the world by storm; of course, we've figured out how to race them. Racing a drone is a combination of good technology and accurate flight. The pilots are safe in their space, but their machines are not. There are all kinds of courses drones race, including indoors and outside.

Grab the attention of all readers with this series about extreme sports. The OFF TO THE RACES series offers a wild ride of vibrant images and small chunks of simple text. Even struggling or reluctant readers will want to reach the "finish line" in these hi-lo books. Airplanes, Drones, and Extreme E are unique titles in that they are all sports that have not been as widely published.
