About this audiobook
Betty likes to race soapbox cars with her friend Cecil. The problem is that it's 1919, and girls aren't supposed to do things like race soapbox cars. However, Betty's mother, who is a feminist fighting for women's right to vote, has taught her that females should have the same rights as men--including the right to race soapbox cars.
