The Little Engine That Could

A joyful retelling of the beloved classic where your child's toy becomes a small but determined engine asked to pull a heavy train over a tall mountain. The big engines say it can't be done, but with the magic words 'I think I can, I think I can,' the little engine chugs all the way to the top and delivers toys to the children on the other side.
