This book takes me back to my childhood. I am so happy to be able to share it with my little one who seems to find interest in it. It was sold at a great price. The colors and vocabulary in the book are great.

Good message and illustrations
My toddler loves this book, mainly for the pictures. Giving 4 stars because there are grammatical errors. But overall a good message and illustrations.

The power of good will over destiny. Thoroughly enjoyable.
With stunning illustrations, this golden little book intends to instil precious values. The mighty engines roll passed the helpless with indifference; only the tiniest, little blue engine feels she has a duty to try to help despite fearing inadequacy.Her precious words during the struggle: “ I think I can… I think I can… I think I can...” could become a magical earworm in your children's ears. When times grow overwhelming or the right choices have to be made, rather than the easy ones, the woken memory of these little golden words could encourage them. With a bit of faith in yourself you could do anything. A small investment with formidable return.
