Is There Really a Human Race? by Jamie Lee Curtis (2006)

I have always wanted to read one of Jamie Lee Curtis' children's books, as I find her a fascinating actress, so I assume her books would be fascinating too, and she did not disappoint. With great illustrations it plays with the idea of a wide variety of humans racing towards something - "Did it start on my birthday?" "If the race is a realy, is Dad on my team? And his dad and his dad?" About being a success, but do some win and some lose? And of course the great lessons - "If we don't help each other, we're all going to ... crash."... "Shouldn't it be that you just try your best?"... "And make the world better for the whole human race." You have to see it, it is really fun.
