PICTURE BOOKS
Neitzel, Shirley

I'm Taking a Trip on My Train

(3) K-3 Illustrated by Nancy Winslow Parker. This rebus-filled cumulative rhyme begins with an engineer's cap and finishes with a whistle at the gate. The book ends with a somewhat drawn-out rhyming nag from Mom about picking up toy trains before bedtime, but otherwise, Neitzel's text is entertaining. Parker's illustrations of trains and objects are clear and appealing in both the larger pictures and the small rebuses.
