In author George Farrow’s debut autobiographical children’s book, he explores a heartfelt question: do cars have feelings? Miss Lizzy, a 1926 Model T Roadster Pickup, faithfully serves a family for decades, working their farm and chauffeuring them around town. However, one day, without warning, she is stored away. Confused, Miss Lizzy wonders about her fate. Will she be dismantled and sold for parts? Will she lose the freedom to roam? Will anyone ever love and care for her again?
