The Gist of It: A colorful fright train travels on a set of tracks.

This is a very simple book and is really more of an art book than a story book. Kids will love to look at the pictures even of they can't read. The illustrations are beautiful; especially once the train starts moving quickly and the smoke. Even though there is a lot more emphasis on the illustrations there is learning for the kids. Each car on the train is labeled and is a different color. 

On the Bookshelf? Yes. It is a fun book to read and brings back great memories.
