Choo-Choo the Little Switch Engine By Wallace Wadsworth
Illustrated by Mary Jane Chase
Choo-Choo, the Little Switch Engine, is very happy. He works in the railroad yard of a big city,
where there are many, many tracks. His work is pushing freight cars over the switches onto
different tracks. He feels very proud of his work, and he looks forward to growing up into a big,
strong, puffing freight engine. Then one day a great, shining, streamlined passenger engine
laughs at Choo-Choo and calls him a “little simpleton” who will never grow up! This makes
Choo-Choo very sad. But when Choo-Choo comes to the rescue of that mean passenger engine,
they both learn how important a little switch engine can be.

Puddleman Story by Ted Staunton
Illustrated by Brenda Clark
When Michael fills his sandbox with water one morning and then jumps right in, Puddleman is born. Puddleman loves playing in the mud -- especially after he's scared off the Glassgrinder twins and made the nosy lady next door feel faint. But when Puddleman yearns for a peanut butter sandwich, he discovers that Michael's mother won't feed muddy monsters. Puddleman is left to sulk and fume -- unless he can figure out a way to transform himself back into … Michael! This is an endearing story for young readers who love playing in the mud -- and who also like eating peanut butter sandwiches.
