review 1: I picked up this book while looking for books for Christmas presents this year. It is absolutely adorable and a great little story for any elementary age child. I plan on buying a copy for my nephew for Christmas.I Love, loved the illustration. The book really leaves the reader open to some great possibilities. It would make a wonderful project for a class to get involved in the story and create their own trains.
review 2: Great book and really fantastic illustrations — like something out of an old Norman Rockwell catalog. A cute, engaging story about how a kid can find, catch, and train his very own train. Nice use of humor for both adults and kids. My only ding would be that some of the illustrations show kids standing on tracks waving at a train to stop. ... moreI realize that I may be a little alarmist, but that's kind of a terrifying image to show to a small child and I find myself always stopping the story to remind my boys that they must never actually do anything like that.... That particular image is one that should probably have been left out. less
