PUT YOUR SEAT BELT ON is a high-energy, funky go-go tune written by Groovy Nate, featuring Uncle Devin on drums. It's a song that puts the fun in "buckling up for safety", and inspired the creation of this book. Many of the illustrations are consistent with the theme of the song, while other pictures present other themes. Regardless, both the words and illustrations dance together as if grooving at their favorite discotheque; or having a sing-along, buckled up for safety, while driving to a house party .
