The Train to Timbuctoo

About The Train to Timbuctoo

Back in print for a new generation, a rollicking, rhyming train tale from the author of Goodnight Moon!

From Kalamazoo to Timbuctoo, from Timbuctoo and back!

This beloved story from 1951, about a big train and a little train that have just left Kalamazoo, has captured the imaginations of generations of children. Out of print for decades, it is back to delight little ones and their parents and grandparents again. “Clackety-clack—clackety-clack—pocketa-pocketa-pocketa”—down the track they go! Now a new generation of children will pore over the cheerful illustrations of bridges, tracks, and countryside, while listening to this rollicking tale.
