Series Review: All Aboard!These books are ideal for the beginning reader. A large font and easy to read text make these a good introduction to nonfiction books for the youngest students. Each book includes a picture glossary and an index in an easy to read format. The series gives students all the information they need to investigate their favorite form of transportation. This is certainly a good supplemental addition to any school library.Library Media ConnectionBook Review: Freight TrainsThis informational book about freight trains includes pages on the parts of a freight train, a load, the wheels, and how busy they are. The photos are good color pictures that will interest many young readers. This book would be good for early readers interested in trains.Carla Lawson, W.E.
