Critical Reviews

"The inventive Shine-a-Light series here focuses on perennially kid-popular technology topics. Blocky, colorful illustrations of trains and construction sites reveal hints of behind-the-scenes details when held to light; turn the page and see black-and-white illustration of the full scene inside the train car, engine, skyscraper, wall, etc. Vehicles and machines are defined in each book's appended glossary. Recommended." -- The Horn Book Magazine

"Starting with the bustling train station, audiences will get a peek at train maintenance, cargo loads, and a look at how the conductor runs the train. Kiddos who like trains will find every bit of this behind-the-scenes info fascinating." -- Little Cub Literacy
