“When it comes to humor and wit, Cheetah Can't Lose takes the prize! The story takes an early, unexpected turn and develops a very funny storyline as Cheetah's need to be the best at everything becomes his own biggest obstacle to winning the year's big race. Some humor is so subtle it might be lost on a young reader ("Don't be silly. Your head is plenty big!"), but it is to sure make you smile.”
