Synopsis The Little Engine That Could by : Watty Piper
The Little Engine That Could is an illustrated children's book that was first published in the United States in 1930 by Platt & Munk. A stranded train is unable to find an engine willing to take it on over difficult terrain to its destination. Only a little blue engine is willing to try and, while repeating the mantra "I think I can, I think I can", overcomes a seemingly impossible task. Based on a 2007 online poll, the National Education Association named the book one of its "Teachers' Top 100 Books for Children".
