Customer Reviews

Fun for All Ages

My son is almost two. He absolutely loves when I read him this book...over and over again. He even tries to read it with me. The rhyming and repetition keep his attention. He turns each page with great anticipation. He really loves the illustrations and pointing to all the pictures. It's one of his favorites and it's fun for parents to read, too! I HIGHLY recommend this to everyone.

Loads of pleasure for your child

My 16 month old loves this book. He would have us read it over and over again and never seems to tire of the story. The rhtyhm of the words and the simple and bold illustrations make this book an attention getter. As soon as I come home in the evening my son starts "choo-choo" and "clikkity-clak". He loves it.

Great Illustrations

Every child I have given this book to loves it-especially the wonderful illustrations by Donald Saaf-all of his books are illustrated beautifully,but this one is really superb.

Wonderful story, beautiful art!

A terrific blend of art and word capture delightfully the magic of trains, the beauty of Vermont and the joy of reading. Donald and Harriet: GREAT WORK!

A must if your child likes stories about trains

This is a wonderful story. It reads well and the illustrations are beautiful. After only hearing it a few times my 3 1/2 year old son was "reading" the story along with me. This is definately a must have book if your child likes stories about trains or if you just want to get your child interested in reading period.
