Team Steve

It's time for the annual Race-a-thon, and Steve the horse is excited. He already knows he'll win, because he wins every year. (With long legs, a long neck, and strong bum muscles, Steve is totally built for running.) Then Steve finds out the rules have changed. This year’s race will be a relay, which means all the runners must compete in teams—and Steve’s teammates are the slowest in the forest.

Is Steve about to lose his first Race-a-thon ever? Come along as Steve prepares his team to handle rain, brambles, flooding, and more. By the time he’s done, the only runner who will be able to defeat Team Steve might be Steve himself.

Steve the horse is back in Team Steve, narrated by the exceptional Rainn Wilson. The story digs into the meaning of teamwork, good sportsmanship, and how self-confidence can help you succeed—but overconfidence can be an embarrassing oversight. With vocabulary enrichment woven throughout, Team Steve is written and illustrated by Kelly Collier and published by Kids Can Press.
