CHOO-CHOO SCHOOL

No racing in the haul-ways! From the late, beloved author Amy Krouse Rosenthal,
a look at seven adorable train cars on their first day of school.All aboard the
train-car pool! A new lineup of students is off and rolling to Choo-Choo School.
After reciting their classroom rules - Work hard, play fair, be kind - it"s time
for some math to get the wheels turning. Then everyone"s ready to climb a hill
in gym (it"s good to blow off steam), sing songs in music (Flat Car is a bit
off-key), and learn the whole alphabet, especially the letter R. In one of Amy
Krouse Rosenthal"s last books, lighthearted verse portrays a world where train
stations are classrooms, the conductor doubles as the teacher, and Boxcar is
happy to hand out tissues to anyone who ah-choo-choos. Bright, energetic
illustrations by animation artist Mike Yamada bring the whole clickety crew to
rollicking life.
