Description

In a railroad yard, way down the tracks, chugs a little trolley called a dinky...about to have a BIG adventure.

Delmar the Dinky spends his days pushing freight cars around the rail yard but wants more than anything to take passengers to the 1904 World's Fair in St. Louis. The big trains doubt that Delmar has what it takes to help the stranded passengers get to the fair on time.

Can Delmar prove them wrong? He may be little, but Delmar can do something the big trains can't do!

Grab your copy today and inspire your little ones and let them know that, just like Delmar, they can do anything they put their minds to.

Perfect for fans of Thomas the Train and The Little Engine That Could.

The beautiful bright illustrations jump off the page in this story, which includes everything from explaining what a Dinky does to the fun sounds that I'm sure kids will have fun reading along with. It's nice to read a little bit of St. Louis history in the front cover. I think it could be fun for families to dive a little deeper with a fun follow-up video or craft. If you're asking my opinion, yes, I'd recommend.
