From Kate and Jim McMullan, the popular creators of I Stink! and I’m Dirty!—now a streaming animated series—comes an irresistible read-aloud about trains, a perennial kid favorite.
WHEELS on the RAILS, ALL night long,
Racin’ and a-rumblin’ the FREIGHT TRAIN song—
Chooka chooka chooka chookaMeet one hard workin’ freight train. He’s got to get to Chicago on time and nothing is going to stop him. Mountains? Not a chance! Cows? Out of his way, ladies! He’s going to get there—and fast!
Can a train pullin’ half a mile of heavy-duty freight cars make it to Chicago ahead of a speedy little race car?
Through the desert . . .
Through the mountains . . .
Through a blizzard . . .
Vvvrrrrrrrrrrrrrrum!
Chooka Chooka Chooka Chooka
The race is on!
Praise for I'M BIG!: "Looking big is a strategy used often in the wild, and readers will be happy to see it work for this essentially gentle giant, from whom the fanged, clawed, spiked, yet puny bullies turn tail."
