Tracks. by Galef, David.(CARDINAL)764291; Illustrated by Tedd Arnold.;
Bing, bing, bing! There's a railroad line being built between Granville and Denton. But with nearsighted Albert laying the tracks, the passengers had better hang on to their seats. David Galef's laugh-a-minute story and Ted Arnold's jump-off-the-page illustrations take you on the wildest ride of your life! When Albert breaks his glasses while supervising the laying of the railroad tracks between two towns, he becomes responsible for one of the most exciting rides that the townspeople have ever had.Juvenile

Down by the Station. [board book] by Stockham, Jessica.(CARDINAL)687413;
Teachers often bemoan the loss of interest in nursery rhymes because they have traditionally been one of the earliest listening and learning experiences for children. They prepare youngsters for the notions of pattern and rhyme. They are often repetitive, which is both comforting and instructive. They are usually silly, adding an element of humor that makes reading fun. Now some of the favorite nursery rhymes and songs have become small board books with holes. In this case, one main hole shows the train on each page. Holes are added to show the trucks, buses and cars that are featured in additional verses. The illustration of the train station is repeated on each page along with a hole to show the new addition. With the train tracks and all the buildings, there are lots of shapes to find (squares, rectangles, triangles). On the left page, the holes show sounds made by each new vehicle?vroom, whoop, crunch, clank. This will be a fun and noisy book to share with young children.Juvenile
