I have a funny feeling that this book of all that I've read by this author will bring the most joy to my grandsons. It is very clever, with many play-on-words which may need some interpretation for kids. The illustrations are very colorful and inviting.

Transportation books are beloved by kiddos so having train cars being the students! BUT it was just kind of meh. It has Amy Krouse Rosenthal's name on it but it doesn't feel like her.....sigh. sigh. It feels like a ghostwriter wrote it. =\ Others will love it but again, not what I was looking for in this particular storytime.

Great illustrations. Text is written with puns and other jokes that will work for adults and more mature readers but will be lost on children who are the right age to enjoy this simple story.

Cute kid's book. Nothing fantastic. No cute little lessons.

That is toot (toot) cute! Sorry, this book put me in a punny mood. It’s sweet but a tiny bit annoying to adult readers. I could see getting fed up of hearing, “Read it again,” with this book.

This is the type of children's book that makes me want to not read to my child. Insipid story and art.

Choo-Choo School by Amy Krouse Rosenthal follows seven simply adorable train cars through their school day. The illustrations by Mike Yamada are winsome and energetic. The tiny student trains are just too cute as they complete their assignments and attend their classes. I also liked the delightful train puns sprinkled throughout this story. This book would be a perfect read aloud for students who are getting ready to go back to school or who about to start school for the very first time. It would also be a sweet read aloud for elementary teachers to use at the beginning of the school year.
