The Tootings are stuck in 1966! Somebody's stolen Chitty Chitty Bang Bang and left them behind. And Little Harry's been kidnapped by whoever stole their magical car. There's only one solution: the Tootings must find the Potts--the family that originally built Chitty. Sharing their combined knowledge of how Chitty works, the families may stand a chance of rescuing Little Harry and finding the most brilliant car in the world. But a fiendish criminal has different plans, ones that involve flying Chitty Chitty Bang Bang to the moon and putting an explosive scheme into action.

Readers will be breathless as they follow the zany action to its conclusion. Black-and-white illustrations nicely augment the adventures and characters and the pacing is breakneck.
