"3.) Freight Train By Donald Crews Crews, D (1993). Freight Train. New York, NY: Greenwillow Books. Illustrated By: Donald Crews Summary: this book will help teach children color because each page is dedicated to a different color. Toddlers will follow the train as it makes a journey through the book."
"Love that this book teaches colors and trains are always of interest to my boys. I love the simple but beautiful pics...it's the first book Ethan has sat down and pretended to read by himself."
"Don't be put off by the simple text and illustrations; this is a book that my 2-year-old can now sit and "read" by himself and show off his expertise. The pictures have a simple beauty and the text can become as dramatic as you make it. Once you've read this book 100 times (and you will), next time you see a train go by you can enjoy naming the different types of cars with your child and imagining where they are headed."
