3.0 out of 5 stars Good story, but lacking in comparison, July 18, 2002
By A Customer
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: The Little Engine That Could Easy-to-Read (Mass Market Paperback)
Really, I wish I would have bought the original. Strangely enough we had the original version borrowed from the library in the house when this book arrived. Even my 2 1/2 year old daughter prefers the original. It is so much better. The details are more vivid. The language more interesting. This version isn't bad; it just isn't AS good.

5.0 out of 5 stars Wonderful Book, August 19, 1998
By A Customer
This review is from: The Little Engine That Could Easy-to-Read (Mass Market Paperback)
All I can say is that I love this book. As a child my mother read me this book over and over. Its message is as inspiring to me now as it was then. I can't say enough how much I love this book. It's a wonderful addition to anyones collection, young and old. Brings me to tears when I read it and think back on my childhood. I don't think I could have gotten through some of those early years without it.

1.0 out of 5 stars Why abridge a classic?, May 9, 2002
This review is from: The Little Engine That Could Easy-to-Read (Mass Market Paperback)
Just buy the REAL Little Engine That Could with its beautiful poetic lines. Skip the easy-to-read version. Little kids have a greater appreciation for real books than some people give them credit for.
