Ever wanted to become a racing champion?

As a road safety enthusiast, I enjoy all things driving. Stories and news items regarding vehicles and driving always seem to catch my attention. I enjoy auto racing and whether it’s NASCAR, Formula 1 or Indy-car racing, they all do create an interest in my life. Call road safety a passion if you would. I’ve even been to a few live races to better enjoy the experience of auto racing.

Since 2005 I’ve been writing about road safety, vehicles and drivers. I’ve spoken with many people, including a few involved in auto racing. It’s been a lot of fun and it’s really turned out better than I could have imagined. Every now and then I think about writing a book about these topics but since I’m kind of a busy person, I put that thought on hold for the time being. While doing what I normally do, I came across a unique opportunity to have the general public star in their own book. Yes, it’s true.

Imagine this; you’re the star of the story. You rise as an underdog in the racing world to win the race. You can see your own name in lights and have a personal good ending story. Whether the story is about you or someone who needs that unique gift, the possibility is real. This opportunity comes from Rock Paper Stories. They do all the hard work for you.

Rock Paper Stories provides an animated book about Gran Prix racing. They put the name of someone you want to give the book to as the driver in this story. It’s unique as it truly becomes a one-of-a-kind book. If this type of thing were made available when my kids were younger, I would have jumped all over it. It’s like they are the star of the story. The age range for this type of book is for someone in the 8 to 16-year-old range. But with all things considered since you know your own kids, you can decide if that age range suits yourself or other members of your family.

Rock Paper Stories does the work for you. All you have to do is input the name of your choice (a family member or friend), pick the hero who most represents them, add a personal message which will appear directly in the book and you’re all done. They do provide a choice of hardcover or soft cover, so depending on your choice, let them know. Once that is decided, it gets shipped out directly to you. A very simple approach to have a unique gift for someone who would enjoy this type of gift.

For a fan of books, driving or auto racing, this is a cool opportunity. We know it can be tricky to find that perfect or unique gift for someone, so this may be the one you go with. To the young race fan, it may turn out to be their favourite gift this year.
