My son LOVES trains and he really enjoys this book being read to him. This is a book that we leave in my husband's car and read on road trips. It is colorful and we discuss the pictures while reading the book.
He says it when we are not reading the book. My son has this book completely memorized. Great buy for any little boy.
It's written as a poem and flows easily when you read it out loud. This book follows a toy train through a day of hard work in a little boy's bedroom. My toddler loves pointing all the various items out to me that are the fantastic illustrations: dogs, cats, fish, princess, bear, engineer.
A true hit. The book was 'read' so many times that it is falling apart and I ordered a copy for each of them that I will give to them when they had children. They even memorized it at 2 1/2 years old. The text is melodic. My boys love this book. They wanted to read it every night for the longest time. The illustrations are colorful and fun.
The pictures (the entire story is made with pictures of children's toys) are captivating. The onomatopoeia (words that are sounds) keeps his attention. I love reading this story and my son loves hearing it. A favorite. my son (2 1/2) sits with this book and chugga, chugga, choo-choos his way through it. The rhythmic story is delightful.
