The Wheelies series, written by Sarah Reju and illustrated by Tania Rex, tells the stories of a family of vehicles whose adventures are both fun and relatable to children ages 3–8. Each book highlights the gospel-centered lessons the youngest member of the family, Coop, learns along the way. A special section for parents at the end of the book provides points for further conversations on what Coop learned about in the story.
What’s Included:
Coop Messes Up
Coop Wheelie is the youngest in his family, and like many little ones, he has a problem obeying the rules—and there are a lot of them! When Coop runs out of gas, his sister, Lucy, tries to help him learn to follow the rules, but finds herself right in the middle of the trouble too. Through Coop’s story, kids will discover that making mistakes can be an important way to learn about forgiveness and God’s love for us.
Coop Helps Out
When Demas, the son of a world-famous race car, makes fun of how Pops’ job as the town garbage truck makes him dirty and smelly, Coop starts to wish his father had a more popular, cleaner job. But when Pops gets sick, Coop learns how important being a garbage truck really is and steps in to help clean up the town. Coop discovers that his father’s humble, selfless service points to Jesus, the best servant of all.
Coop Learns He Can
Coop dreams of doing big, important things like his older siblings do. He is excited to go off-roading with Joy, a Jeep, but as a MINI-Cooper, he can’t keep up. Coop becomes sad that he isn’t built to climb rocks and fling mud like his sister. When Joy gets stuck and needs her brother’s speed and agility to rescue her, Coop realizes that he was fearfully and wonderfully made by God with special talents of his own.

I love reading these books and rejoiced as the story points us to Christ. I bought them as a gift for my sister’s grandson. He gives them 5 stars too!
