The Little Engine That Could by Watty Piper

3.0

---

I am not sure if my nostalgia is deceiving me or it is a shortcoming of the abridged version, but I did not find the little blue engine’s struggle to be very arduous or prolonged. It really seemed like the only thing that set her apart from the other engines was that she did not just blow off the toy train. In the end I was underwhelmed.
