The Little Engine That Could

Daily writing prompt
Do you remember your favorite book from childhood?

My childhood favorite book was The Little Engine that Could. Perhaps you read that one when you were a little kid? I was about three when it was read to me, and I memorized it until I could read it on my own. This was the book that let me know that I wanted to be a writer when I grew up and encourage people to use all their power until they achieve their goals.

What is your favorite book from childhood? And why?
