The Perky Little Engine: A Reading Laboratory Book
School & Library Binding
(Childrens Press Jan. 15, 1975)
, 10th edition
Those who know about engines can identify them by the number and arrangement of their wheels. The Perky Little Engine is a mere four-wheeler, a switch engine, as little as they come. But there is no accounting for this one that goes off and has an adventure. It might all have ended in a haystack but for the old goat that has the wisdom to say, "Back out yourself!" This is a story for fun, braced with a little of the lore of railroading. Classroom tested for ages 7-9. Includes a Skill Builder word list at the end of the book.
