Lowriders in Space

Lupe Impala, El Chavo Flapjack, and Elirio Malaria love working with cars. You name it, they can fix it. But the team’s favorite cars of all are lowriders--cars that hip and hop, dip and drop, go low and slow, bajito y suavecito. The stars align when a contest for the best car around offers a prize of a trunkful of cash--just what the team needs to open their own shop! ¡Ay chihuahua! What will it take to transform a junker into the best car in the universe? Striking, unparalleled art engages reluctant readers with a story inked with science facts, humor, Spanish slang, and true friendship. A glossary at the back provides definitions for new terms in this delightful graphic novel that will educate and entertain in equal measures.
