Ian Fleming's story of Chitty Chitty Bang Bang!: the magical car

Ian Fleming, best known for his James Bond novels, wrote only one childrens bookand it is a classic! Chitty Chitty Bang Bang is the name of the flying, floating, driving-by-itself automobile that takes the Pott family on a riotous series of adventures as they try to capture a notorious gang of robbers. This is a story filled with humor, adventure, and gadgetry that only a genius like Fleming could create. From the Hardcover edition. Most motorcars are conglomerations (this is a long word for bundles) of steel and wire and rubber and plastic, and electricity and oil and gasoline and water, and the toffee papers you pushed down the crack in the back seat last Sunday. A retelling for beginning readers of the tale of the magic car that thinks, floats, and flies.
