“My two year old absolutely adores this book, and it's quite adorable to watch him "read" it himself after having memorized the words from us having read it together so many times. It teaches a sweet little lesson about trying new things and having it not always be about our personal preferences. That being said... it's a little grating to read too many times in a row.”

“The perfect book for any child that likes trains. :) Little elephant loves his trains but makes new friends who like planes, diggers, and cars. The illustrations are darling and colorful, and there are a lot of fun animals to point out in this book.”
