Inside Freight Train

Toddler loves trains, and loves this book!A must have for the little ones that love choo choos!!!

Fun, and a good teaching tool for what a freight train can carry. Perfect for toddlers

This is a very cute book for kids. Certain pages slide open to reveal the inside of the freight train, and it's various cars. Well made and holds up nicely.

I originally bought this book at a train museum for my son. He loves that he can pull the book apart to see the insides of many of the train cars. Very cute concept. As some have commented, some of the sliders can come a apart (only one did for us--and actually I haven't fixed it yet because it really doesn't fall all apart...but I suppose I should fix eventually for overall longevity) but it's pretty easy to fix with just a dab of glue. (But I knocked it down a star for that.) However, I still would recommend it...especially is you're looking for an inexpensive train-themed gift that's a bit unique. In fact I bought a second one for a co-worker present.

My son loved the original Freight Train book by Donald Crews, and so we bought him this one, too. The idea for the sliding pages is great in theory, but on our copy they are impossible to pull apart easily (get stuck, don't work properly unless you pull it perfectly straight, which a toddler cannot do). This results in much frustration, many tears, and a book that fell apart after 2 reads. I've glued it back together but it just keeps falling apart and it's still not any easier or more fun to read. And I shouldn't have to keep repairing it.Don't bother buying it, unless you have a toddler that has the motor skills of an adult and never cries about anything that goes wrong.

I already wrote a review on this product but am still unable to edit: mentioned a slight problem but the seller contacted me instantly and made it right. I would recommend both this book and seller without reservation. Great companion to the Crews FREIGHT TRAIN book. Tells, often with interactive graphics, what's actually inside each train car.

Sweetest book. The train cars pull open to reveal their contents. After reading one at my friend’s house, I had to purchase one for myself....No, I don’t have grandchildren (yet). Did not want it to go out of print.

This is a gift for my Grandson. I'm sure he will love it.

My son loves this book, He's 3

Initially I was looking to replace a lost copy of Freight Train by Donald Crews when I saw this. It is a lovely book for children with a clever mechanism to pull the board pages apart to reveal the contents of the different cars. Lots to see and talk about. We love Donald’s illustrations.

2歳の子供にはまだはやすぎた気がします。フリップをめくるとはちがいこの本は力をいれて引っ張ります。また、元に戻す時も力がいります。力まかせにすると本は折れてしまいます。ボードブックではあるものの息子はどうしてもしまいたくて力任せにおして本を曲げてしまいました。でも、それだけ汽車の中には何があるのかな？と興味深々だったのでしょう。親が手助けをしなくてはなりませんが、親にとっても興味深い本でした。

Much loved by my three year old grandson, who already has Donald Crews' Freight Train and knows it by heart!

Very clever and popular with the pre-schoolers.
