My 4-year-old truly enjoyed this story. He really liked that the story was from the point of view of the little toy train. We both thought the illustrations were fantastic. What I found really neat was the list of trains at the end of the book. The author gives you descriptions of each type of train. The author also included information about how the illustrations were made and what type of paper it was printed on. Call me a book nerd, but I really thought it was neat that they included that info. I highly recommend this book!

My three-year-old son, when we reached the page at the back entitled More About Trains, "Mommy, read this from the top to the bottom."
Yes, Sir!
Yes, Sir!

A train book with comic book panels as the illustrations. Would make a better one-on-one story due to length and the small panels.

Cute idea for a story, but not well done. My kids and I found it quite boring.

This one has great illustrations, but they are too involved to be really conducive to a preschool story time. I think a preschooler who loves trains would enjoy this as a one-on-one read aloud.
