Oh, Dearest Mother, Sweetest Virgin of Altagracia, our Patroness. You are our Advocate and to you we recommend our needs. You are our Teacher and like disciples we come to learn from the example of your holy life. You are our Mother, and like children, we come to offer you all of the love of our hearts. Receive, dearest Mother, our offerings and listen attentively to our supplications. Amen.

Thanks, Kari! Very cool. My hometown is known as Steamtown so I have a bit of interest in train history in me. Steamtown is an excellent National Park, btw.

Love,

the original Thomas stories are very nice. We actually wore out our first copy, and my older son never saw the show (or the movie--Magic Railroad--which came out when he was about 2 or so) and did not suffer from the lack of it.   Original Thomas the Tank Engine Stories
If I recall, they do use the word stupid, and "shut up" I think (both no-nos in our house), but that's easy to edit out with a pre-reader. Plus, each story in the book is short. I think there's 48 of them.

DK Big Book of Trains- not a story book, but my train-loving boys (once upon a time) loved this!
The Goodnight Train - a cute bedtime book for your littles!
Chugga Chugga Choo Choo -- almost every little boy I know who loves/d trains loves/d this book! Rhymes + trains = unbeatable combination
Choo Choo - and how can you not love this one, another classic from Virginia Lee Burton?
