Description

Little Train is going out on the track, all by himself, for the very first time! But before he goes, his mummy and daddy remind him: When its time to come home, no matter how far you are, just follow the track all the way back, where well be waiting. So Little Train heads off into the unknown with a clickety-clack But, when night falls and the track runs out, will he remember what to do

Taking its place beside the classic The Little Engine That Could, young readers will share Little Trains trepidation and excitement in this uplifting and extraordinary read-aloud adventure, and rejoice in the gorgeously atmospheric artwork of illustrator Ben Mantle.
