Summary: Too bad it is abridged
Review: The current self-help genre tends to be dwelling on hurts and self-pity, then finding magical solutions. Our Little Engine just has healthy self-confidence and determination. And please don't stress even that when reading it to the kids who will love it, since they find their own more imaginative interpretations.The unabridged version is a lifetime favourite of mine, and, for classroom use or that with older children, find a copy at all costs. This version does retain much of the essence, however, and is great for the pre-school set. The only "negative" I can think of is that the kids so love the repetition that parents may grow a bit tired of the daily requests for it to be re-read, especially if the particular child wants to hear only certain sections (I knew one who always wanted "the clown part," the other "the food part.") The same enjoyable repetition makes this a favourite story to read to children in primary grades. Yes, be sure you don't stop the kids from all joining in "I think I can..." This remains one book that every favourite kid of mine receives as a present. If it disappoints any of your children, that will be a first, in my experience!

Summary: Great book!
Review: The reading teacher and I were wondering if we could displace The Little Red Hen in children's reading basals with The Little Engine That Could. It's message is certainly one that is positive rather than ungenerous, which seems to define the hen book. I think this book shouldn't be forgotten.

Summary: A toddlers' favorite. Read it again and again for smiles.
Review: The story of a train filled with dolls and toys that breaks down and asks for help from other engines. The classic story of a simple struggle to bring the dolls and toys to the "children on the other side of the mountain" is a delight when a little blue engine volunteers to help and "I think I can, I think I can, I think I can" is is finally rewarded in the end with "I thought I could, I thought I could", etc. My 2 and 3 year olds' favorite book for many weeks. Enjoy. Dec 1998

Summary: The Little Engine That Could Recieve 5 Stars!
Review: This book sure took me back to my diaper days. Toddlers will laugh themselves up the big steep hill as they read aloud this humorous yet deeply emotional story about finding your strength within. The Little Engine is an example to all kidkind to never give up, and think you can!

Summary: Action fetches pre-readers
Review: This is a charming version. The train has a third wheel that fits in a groove-tack on each page, and little eyes are riveted as the story actually chugs along. My 3, 6 (and forty-something) year old boys love this wind-up/book combo.
