Nansi has never lost a race... until snobby Tania beats her in an unofficial event. Surely it's Tania's flashy shoes that gave her the edge. Nansi has to get a pair before the track tryouts! But how will she kick up 338 dollars? Incorporating Jamaican culture and the West African trickster character, Anansi, debut author Carl Brundtland has created an endearingly self-absorbed heroine who always goes the distance - even if it's the wrong way. With award-winning illustrator Claudia Davila's expressive art, Way Off Track hits the ground running with humour, hijinks and a whole lot of heart.
