My Crazy Toy


I have very very strange toy.It's not a car.It's not a truck or train .i don't know what it is.It's a wonderful toy.I like it very much because it can go anywhere .It can climb up mountains,steps or any uneven surface.It reverses , its direction.It runs up side down.Sometimes it stands .I drive it by using a remote controller.my cousin sister presented it.This toy has a rechargeable battery,when it runs it's like a crazy animal.This toy is just like a space vehicle used to investigate planet Mars by NASA.
