Smoore Books for Kids who Love Trains

Babies/Toddlers, Picture Books

chugga3Another book for kids who love trains.  Chugga-Chugga Choo-Choo by Kevin Lewis, (Illustrated by Daniel Kirk, Hyperion, 1999).

 Sun’s up!
Morning’s here.
                      Up and at ‘em
                      engineer.
 
                      Chugga-chugga
                      choo-choo,
                      whistle blowing,
                      whoooooooo! whoooooooo!

And we’re off for a day of adventure with a toy train  and all his toy passengers as they travel through the playroom.  Bright, cheery graphics, fun rhyme and a great refrain make this an especially fun read-aloud book.  And the train takes the reader all the way to bedtime with a little boy sleeping with his toy train by his side: 

                       Sleepy-sleepy choo-choo
                       till tomorrow,
                       whoooooooo!  whoooooooo!
