Brief Book Summary:
CALLAWAY CLASSICS DELUXE LARGE-SIZED LIMITED EDITION
Everyone loves The Little Engine That Could, that classic tale of the determined little engine that, despite its size, triumphantly pulls a train full of toys to the waiting children on the other side of a mountain.
Now the great Loren Long (Mr. Peabody's Apples) has brilliantly re-illustrated this classic story, bringing it exuberantly to life for today's child.
CALLAWAY CLASSICS are uniquely collectible. The large scale trim size is 14.5 x 17 inches in order to convey the full power of the art. The books are printed on the finest uncoated paper, heavyweight Mohawk Superfine, utilizing the latest digital prepress techniques and four-colour offset lithography. Each copy is numbered with a limited print run. The books are hardbound, jacketed, and contained in a lavish deluxe collector's gift box. The Callaway Classics series is edited under the direction of Maria Tatar, Dean for the Humanities at Harvard University, who is one of the most authoritative and insightful writers on the history and meaning of fairy tales.

I cannot say enough good about this book! It is truly a book that you will pass down generation to generation. I was sceptical at very first because of the price and when I received it I was awe struck. You won't be disappointed.

Beautiful book with bigger than life pictures. A classic book that your child will love. My daughter was just all over this book and you could not get it out of her hands for the subsequent week!

I ordered this for my son's birthday party and it was beyond my expectation!! The book was still sealed from the publisher and in excellent shape. The details in the book were great and the kids had a lot of fun reading the story. The book is large enough that you can sit in a chair and the kids can sit in front of you and read it.

I take my 2-year-old son to the library every week and anxiously search out the old classics, and the story "The Little Engine that Could" was always one of my favorites, but I was shocked! The pictures were SO UGLY! Then when I examined the inside cover, I saw that there were completely new pictures. WHY?? The old pictures were so charming! I was delighted to find be able to purchase the edition with the original, charming pictures. Skip this edition and get the "real" one!
