Hardback. Condizione: Good. ?A lighthearted, entertaining trip down Memory Lane? (Kirkus Reviews), Don?t Make Me Pull Over! offers a nostalgic look at the golden age of family road trips?before portable DVD players, smartphones, and Google Maps.The birth of America?s first interstate highways in the 1950s hit the gas pedal on the road trip phenomenon and families were soon streaming?sans seatbelts!?to a range of sometimes stirring, sometimes wacky locations.
