Editorial Review: "This is a boy whose name is Mike. This is Mikes pride and joyhis bike
" So begins the inspiring tale of a boy, his best friend, and the adventurous relationship that many children begin when they are young and continue the rest their lives! Illustrated in a retro-contemporary style, Mike and The Bike rhymes its way through Mike's choosing of his favorite toy - his bike (of course!) - and follows him off on adventures around the world and back home, where he goes to bed wearing his helmet, ready for the next day! Mike and The Bike is the first childrens book written by Grammy Awardwinning guitarist and songwriter, avid cyclist and riding partner of Lance Armstrong, Michael Ward. Mike and the Bike came into being, appropriately enough, while Michael cycled near his home in Los Angeles. Includes a foreword by 6-time Tour de France winner Lance Armstrong and a 30-minute CD with music by Michael and his son, Tennessee Ward, plus a special musical narration of Mike and the Bike by the "Voice of Cycling," Phil Liggett.

Average Rating: 
Rating: - good kids book
I got this book for tour de france week at my preschool teaching job. The kids liked the book. They thought it was cool that mike went all over the world and still came back home. I liked the cd but i didnt use it when i read it to them. Perfect for a bike racing or riding fan, for your kids of course! you should definetly get this one.
Rating: - Great book for cycling enthusiasts!
This book is so cute - very cool illustrations and it's a very cute story, too. Both of my kids love it and my husband loves reading to them about his favorite sport!
Rating: - Fun Story, Great Illustrations, Weird Music
This story is great for any kid you want to turn in to a cycling enthusiast. It advocates wearing helmets and, to my husband's great delight, cleaning the bike at the end of the ride.
My son loves the story and the illustrations are interesting and fun. I find the music on the CD a little funky but my 3 y.o. likes it.
Rating: - Mike and the Bike
I was very excited to get this book for my son. The story is good, the CD is good. The binding of the book was out of whack and went right throught the pages at a 45 degree angle. The pages were immediately ripped. It was very dissapointing.
Rating: - An entertaining picutrebook excellent for motivating young people to learn how to ride a two-wheeler
Written by Grammy Award-winning guitarist, songwriter, and experienced cyclist, Mike and the Bike is a combination picturebook and audio CD with original music. Mike and the Bike tells about an ordinary boy who loves to cycle - while wearing a bicycle helmet, of course! The vivid color illustrations add a touch of surrealism to his cycling adventures, and the audio CD allows the reader to read or listen along to Mike's crazy adventures. An entertaining picutrebook excellent for motivating young people ... Read More
