One of our dearest friends from Stamford let me know this morning that his children’s book is now available at Amazon. We’ve known the Alter family since their daughter was in preschool with Emily (the girls are now finishing 3rd grade). Jason made up the adventures of John Fastramp while telling bedtime stories to his kids.

From the description:

John Fastramp and the Dakota 3000 Challenge is adventure fiction for young boys and girls (~grades 3-6). John is a superb driver and his car is very special – the Blue Spider has lasers, special tires, protective armor and many more dazzling inventions – but will it be enough to overcome the obstacles ahead? Will John and his friends be able to overcome the highly unusual dangers of the Dakota 3000 Challenge?

Jason has spent a lot of time developing this book, from focus groups at the kids’ school to hiring an illustrator and self-publishing. I’m thrilled to see it finally available for sale.

My copy is on its way to me now. I can’t wait to see the finished product and share it with my girls, who haven’t had a chance to read it yet.
