The Little Train

Summary: choo-choo CHOO-CHOO!
Review: I have twin babies, 21 months old, a boy and a girl, who adore this book. They had never seen trains before, but after two days being read this book, they point to it and say "choo-choo", and anytime a train comes up on one of their videos, they identify it. Furthermore, there are lovely incidental details on every page which they can point to upon questioning (where's the horse? Where's the bridge?), which is a positive thing for intellectual growth at this age. A perfect toddler classic.

Summary: The Little Train by Lois Lenski
Review: I like trains a lot and this book tells about how you run trains, especially steam ones. Engineer Small and Conductor Little are really nice as they take you on a tour of the train and then on a journey. The pictures are fun and neat plus are detailed and name parts of the engine. There are even good safety ideas! I think any little boy or girl would like this book like I do!
