National Bike Month is upon us! So if you haven't already, hop on a pair of wheels and go for a spin--and don't forget to bring the kids. When you're finished, rest your saddle-sore rear in a comfy chair and share some of the following books with the training-wheels set.
Chris Raschke's latest picture book breaks down the steps involved in mastering how to ride a bike. The young girl starts with training wheels, then raises them a "smidge" and finally they're off completely. A few spills and a lot of tries later and she's a bona fide rider. Yay!

Wonderful list Catherine. We read Along a Long Road a loved the art concept :) We read "Lotta's Bike" at Stacking books (link:http://www.stackingbooks.com/?p=1849) and thought it would be a good addition to this list.
