I think I can, I think I can. Generations of readers have been delighted by these famous words, the rallying cry of The Little Engine That Could. This inspiring, best-selling classic is now available in a giant edition, perfect for sharing and reading aloud.

The unknowing progenitor of a whole generation of self-help books, Wally Piper's The Little Engine That Could is one of the greatest tales of motivation and the power of positive thinking ever told. In this well-loved classic, a little train carrying oodles of toys to all of the good boys and girls is confronted with a towering, seemingly impassable mountain. As nicely as they ask, the toys cannot convince the Shiny New Engine or the Big Strong Engine--far too impressed with themselves--to say anything but I can not. I can not. It is left up to the Little Blue Engine to overcome insurmountable odds and pull the train to the other side. The Little Engine That Could is an entertaining and inspirational favorite, and the Little Blue Engine's rallying mantra I think I can--I think I can will resonate for a lifetime in the head of every child who hears it. (Ages 4 to 8))
