This old-fashioned tale about one little snowplough's determination in the face of a small town blizzard has all the charm and moral grit of The Little Engine That Could. This isn't surprising, considering that Caldecott award-winning author Virginia Lee Burton (The Little House) specialises in bringing the inanimate to life with endearing illustrations and stories of fortitude and vulnerability. Katy, a red crawler tractor, "could do a lot of things," Burton explains early on. In the summer she is a bulldozer, helping to build and repair roads in the City of Geoppolis. In the winter, she turns into a snowplough, waiting and waiting for her chance to be useful. Most of the winters, though, the snowfalls are mild and the town doesn't need Katy. But when the big one finally hits, the town is buried in page after page of powder. The power lines are down. The doctor can't get his patient to the hospital. The fire department can't reach a burning house! "Everyone and everything was stopped but...KATY!" Suddenly, the entire community is dependent on one little snowplough. Children love witnessing Katy's shining moment of glory and will inevitably admire her "chug, chug, chug" endurance. (Ages 4 and older) --Gail Hudson -- Dieser Text bezieht sich auf eine andere Ausgabe: Taschenbuch .

Still the best 10. Juni 2000

Von readamystery13

Format:Gebundene Ausgabe

This book is still one of my favorite children's books. I remember asking my mother to read this book over and over again to me. It didn't matter whether it was summer or winter, it was my favorite book! This will be a book I will pass on to my children.

My first book! 5. Januar 2000

Von Mark Amundsen

Thirty years ago, this was the very first book I read all by myself. I loved it. I still love it. (But I think I screwed up the storyline...I remembered it being rather different!)

it doesn't snow as much as it used to 22. November 1999

Von Jim

when i was 6 or so i would ride my bike to the library and just read this book. i had all but forgotten about it when i saw it in a store the other day. about 25 years later i think i see some lessons i learned from katy. i also remeber fondly, the giving tree and where the wild things are, as well as schoolhouse rock as positive mental stimulants.
