Great Lesson -- Great Words submitted by Crafty on August 7, 2013, 7:37pm This is a classic for a reason. It is just plain fun to read out loud.
Each engine introduced has its own rhythm.

Encouraging message submitted by elepling on August 3, 2018, 11:55pm The motto of this book sticks in your mind

Great message submitted by TLW1998 on July 11, 2019, 9:16pm This is a classic children’s book which teaches them to think positively, keep trying, and don’t give up.

Dated classic submitted by Sara W on July 19, 2019, 8:22pm Everything about this book was dated when I read it as a child, but it struck me as I read it to my kids and they asked why the milk was in those weird bottles and what the different toys did and if those shapes were really candy. It's an odd favorite but I like it for its familiarity. It wasn't a hit and likely won't be a favorite for my kids but definitely worth revisiting.

Love it submitted by crp on August 30, 2019, 8:58pm We make different choo choo noises for each train- my kid loved it!
