What if your racing helmet held the magic to make you brave? Kat’s Magic Helmet is an inspiring picture book for kids ages 3–8 about bravery, confidence, and the power of believing in yourself.
Based on Katherine Legge’s early days in karting, this empowering story introduces young readers to the thrilling world of racing through the journey of one of motorsport’s most fearless trailblazers. Kat was born with the heart of a racer—always on the move. But in big groups or around new people, she felt shy. That all changed behind the wheel. When her dad surprised her with her very own go-kart and a shiny helmet, Kat discovered something magical: confidence. With her “magic” helmet on, she wasn’t shy anymore—she was bold, brave, and fast.
This beautifully illustrated picture book follows Kat’s early racing journey—through setbacks, self-doubt, and even a crash that breaks her beloved helmet. But Kat learns that the real magic was never in the helmet. It was in her all along.
Based on the real story of professional race car driver Katherine Legge, Kat’s Magic Helmet is a powerful story about believing in yourself, breaking boundaries, and chasing your dreams—on and off the track.
