Reviews

“…a definite read-aloud… will soon have even the youngest singing along.” – Children’s Book Review Service

 

“This rendition of a traditional American children’s rhyme is a definite read-aloud. Kids, adults, animals and even a band are taking the train. But where are they all going? The simple storyline is well-complemented by the bold, colorful cartoon illustrations. Kids will find lots to look for and discuss. The rhyming verses will soon have even the youngest singing along.” – Children’s Book Review Service.

“A rhyming verse follows the journey of a train as it picks up passengers, including a marching band and a number of farm animals, and eventually the destination is divulged…the passengers return home sleepy and satisfied, clutching all manner of ribbons, prizes and trophies.” – The Horn Book.
