HELLO, FREIGHT TRAIN!![]() From HELLO, FREIGHT TRAIN! Illustrations copyright 2005 by Bob Kolar. REVIEWS"... In this Scholastic Reader, a puppy in jeans waits for a train to pass, while his father points out the passing cars ... A few train terms (piggyback car) will challenge some children, but the subject in the bold-printed words usually becomes clear in the appealing illustrations... Expressive portraits of the smiling, blue locomotive will easily appeal to new readers or to young listeners who are passionate about things that go." BOOKLIST "Hello world! These easy-to-read books help young children understand the world around them ... With large type and just two lines per page, the rhythmic text keeps the story rolling along... A wide range of ages can appreciate them; the young ones will enjoy the simple pictures and the rhyming text being read to them, older children can read back to their parents, and review the word list at the back of the book."
