It's a Hit!!

This delightful picture book will thrill young boys and girls alike as they race down the tracks with an ole hogger on engine 417! They'll meet colorful characters along the way, from Ole Joe, the ashcat, to Mabel, the merry-go-round operator, as the illustrations perfectly capture the lingo of this fast-paced E ticket ride. Kids will absolutely love it!

Lots of fun and informative too.

A definite must for your home library! Kids love the detailed watercolors and the almost-musical text. Who knew railroading slang was so fun? Pretty soon your kids will be asking for their milk as "whitewash" and telling your their "trick is up" at bedtime. Train enthusiast of all ages will enjoy this trip down the main line.

All Aboard for a GREAT TRAIN BOOK!

CAN YOU HEAR THE WHISTLE BLOWING? . . .ummm, yes, you sure can! It's coming down the track, coming down the track, coming down the track! Patricia Newman delivers a zesty read about the world of trains. Told from the point of the engineer, you will learn train terms, facts, and just a fresh appreciation for the chugging world of transportation. Perfect resource for a transportation unit in the classroom. I also love the title. . .and I LOVE THIS BOOK!

What a fun read!

This book cries out to be read out loud. A very fun, entertaining read. My only regret is that my children are too old to ask me to read it to them time and time again--I no longer have a convenient excuse. Highly recommended for readers of all ages -- and for parents who miss reading out loud to their children. Do it anyway--they'll thank you for it!

This one's a keeper!

This book is sure to become a favorite of railroad buffs of all ages. Newman interviewed a former "hogger" and staff of the California State Railroad Museum in Sacramento to lend authenticity to her book. Told in entertaining railroad jargon, the story follows a boy and the boss hogger on an exciting trip back in time to 1926, the heyday of steam locomotion. The book clamors to be read aloud with a little one in your lap to point out the exciting details in the superb artwork. Feel the wind in your hair as you jingle the brass!
