Nice Graphics but Story Could be Better April 25, 2009 jkl Nice pictures but story is a bit wordy to read to a two year-old and could be a bit more engaging. I would shop around before picking this one.
Great addition to my two-year-old's library February 6, 2009 K. Zabtado (Milwaukee, WI) My son loves all things train, so I got this book for him. He mostly enjoys looking at the pictures and calling out different words such as "blue", "green", "sun", etc. I enjoy reading the story as it is short and sweet.
Not for beginning readers October 18, 2008 Sand60 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
The other reviewer is correct as this is not a book for beginners, but it is an excellent book for kids who are interested in Thomas to learn about colors, shapes, and friendship. The rhymes are great and it is a pretty easy read (and you will end up reading this one over and over again). The only two trains in this book are Thomas and Percy, so it is nice that it doesn't introduce a lot of new trains and you can concentrate on the colors and shapes. If your kids are into Thomas you really can't go wrong with this one.
a favotite July 29, 2008 John Thomas Mohler (moab, ut) A favotite of my five year old. Likes to point to the charactors and and act out the story.
Great Thomas book July 29, 2008 J. Hoffman (United States) 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
I agree with the other reviewer that this book probably isn't the best for a beginning reader. My two year old loves it as a "read this to me book", and I like it so much more than the Thomas books that are stories from the tv shows (I don't really like the themes in the some of shows--teasing, naughtiness, "you get what's coming to you", etc). I think it would have been even better if it had still photos, that is the best part of the other Thomas books. But regardless this book is very catchy (as any Dr. Suess-type book would be) and it is my favorite Thomas book. It is my toddler's favorite Thomas book too, I think he likes the rhymes. He brings it to me to read as often as he brings me his truck and car books. (He has a few of the Thomas books from the tv show as well and doesn't touch them).
