Editorial Reviews for  'Chugga-Chugga Choo-Choo'
 
Product Description
What works from dawn until dusk without a break until it delivers all its freight? A very busy steam engine gets the job done in this cheerful story that begs to be read aloud.
 
Americancivilwar.com Review
Kids love trains, and Kevin Lewis and illustrator Daniel Kirk's Chugga-Chugga Choo-Choo will do nothing but encourage the obsession. "Sun's up! / Morning's here. / Up and at 'em, / engineer," cheerfully begins this rhyming picture book. As the simple large-lettered text chugs along, Daniel Kirk brings a child's playroom and train set to life with bold, bright illustrations reminiscent of his work in Bigger. In the course of the book, the toys bustle about to make sure the steam engine is loaded up with freight and finds its way (through the country, 'round the mountains, into tunnels, and across the river) to its destination--the city. There the "sleepy-sleepy choo-choo" rests, right next to a tired little boy, until the next day's work begins: "To the roundhouse / you are bound. / Good night, engine, / safe and sound." (Baby to preschool)

Great Children's book
All of my children have loved this book. The pictures are great and the story line keeps them interested. This is one of my 2 year old's favorite books. I had to get a second copy because the first one was worn out.
 
Great for Bedtime!
My 18-month old son loves this book and won't go to bed without reading it. The illustrations are colorful, vibrant and interesting. A must for any growing library.
 
Great bedtime book for train lovers!
My 2 year old son loves this book. He's loved it since he was about 9 months old. It's rhyming and fun to read out loud with bright and interesting illustrations. Sure to be a hit for any boy who loves trains!
 
My children's favorite book
This simple, rhyming book about a toy train has been read and re-read in this house. My girls absolutely MUST hear this book at least five times a day. We're on our third copy, as the first two were destroyed from overuse. My only criticism is that the book is not of more sturdy construction. If you have toddlers and pre-school age children, this book is a must have!
 
Chugga Chugga
Our boy already loved Tugga-Tugga Tugboat and My Truck is Stuck, so I had an idea that he would like this book by the same author/illustrator combo, especially because he likes trains.

Well, this was his favorite of the three. The drawings are charming, the story sufficiently uncomplicated for a nearly-three-year-old, and he wanted us to read nothing else for weeks. Highly recommended.
