“Locomotive” by Brian Floca

Locomotive

It is a looooong journey and not always exciting. Great illustrations, though.

“Thomas’ ABC Book”

Tomas

 

My child loves Thomas but this book is a disappointment. It “caused confusion,” though certainly not a delay… Anyway, the idea is great but the matching letters with pictures is in some cases quite problematic. For instance: “K” is for kind, “L” for little – both stand for Edward. “M” – is for men, that is for engine drivers. “N” is for new coat of paint with Henry on a picture. “O” is for old-fashioned with Toby on a picture… It was very confusing for my boy, who’s just learning his ABC.
