A MUST HAVE FOR ANY BOY OR GIRL AGE BIRTH TO 3
|
|
If you're having a baby or if you have a toddler you must have this book. My daughter (age 3) loves it and I love reading it to her. I sit her on my lap and bounce her up and down to the rhythm of Chugga Chugga Choo Choo (and I add extra Chugga Chugga Choo Choo's while I turn the page so that the rhythm never stops). It's got such a sweet ending, I start drawing out the Chugga Chugga's at the end and yawn "Sleepy Sleepy Choo Choo Till Tomorrow". The illustrations are adorable. This would be a great shower gift, it's just so much fun to read.

attention getter

I definately think this book deserves five stars! The colors and pictures are so bright and fun they will catch even an adults attention. The words are catchy and repetitive witch is great when your trying to read to busy toddlers or in my case children with special needs. Those of you who know or have children with special needs know that your lucky just to get them to listen to the first five pages. However I got this book at the library and read it to my little two year old brother who has autism and he sat through the whole book and then wanted "more more". The sounds are also good practice for little ones the Choo Choo sound and Whoo Whoo,my little brother who can say very little was running all over the house saying choo choo and whoo whoo. I was very impressed with this book and am going to buy it right away!

My toddler's favorite bedtime book
|
|
My 2 year old loves this book! His first word for train was "choo choo!" We enjoy the rhyming ("Sun's up, morning's here, up and at 'em, engineer."), and the whole theme of the toy train and all the toy characters (a la Toy Story) in the child's bedroom. He loves the "whoo whoo" whistle sound the train makes, especially when the train is in the tunnel and you get the echo! It is a little short, as another reviewer states, but hey, so is a toddler's attention span!

Falling apart it's been read and loved so much...

My 2 1/2 year old loved this book when he was very little and still gets it off the bookshelf for me to read to him. This is also a favorite of my 9 month old. This is the book that I get friends who have children. It's bright and colorful and fun to read.

average

This book is very colorful and the children love the whooo, whooo parts of the book. I think that this book is average, it is a very short book and on some of the pages the rhyming is a little off. I usually don't write reviews, but many people tend to give 5 stars to every book just because there is nothing wrong with it, but I have read much better books. Consider buying it, but it is an average book. Although if you have a real train fan you might want to check it out.
