    Love this classic

    I never read this book as a child but heard of the story, so I night this for my children. I love the nostalgic artwork as it reminds me of books I would read at my grandparents house. The book is older than I am, but was in excellent condition, only showing slight wear on the cover!

  • The Little Engine That Could, a children's book

    This book, originally written in 1930, is a classic for a very good reason. It's wonderful! The theme of the book is that by trying and trying, even little characters can accomplish big goals. The illustrations are sweet but dated, yet my grandson, who is 2, asks for this book again and again. At first, he handed it to me and just said "choo choo." After a month, he hands it to me and says "The Little Engine that Could by Watty Piper, please." Maybe he remembers the author's name because it is so unusual! I suspect that some of the Thomas the Train characters had their origin in the trains from this book, since the book's trains have faces on the front of the engines and are colorful. In brief, after bigger engines refuse to help, a little ...

  • When all the big, important engines won't pull the toy train, the little engine does the job.

    Wonderful story for kids that teaches them that they can do whatever they put their minds to, as long as they try hard.
