Nathaniel's Trains is the story of a little boy with a big heart. He loves playing with the toy trains his grandfather passed down to him, and is excited when his father takes him to see a real train.

Produktbeschreibung
Nathaniel's Trains is the story of a little boy with a big heart. He loves playing with the toy trains his grandfather passed down to him, and is excited when his father takes him to see a real train. They're both disappointed to find the train, the station, the tracks - all abandoned and in disrepair. But Nathaniel comes up with a plan: he'll sell the toy train he loves to try to save the big train, inspiring his whole community. The best thing about it: it's based on the absolutely true story of Nathaniel Guest, who really did save not only an old engine, but brought the entire Colebrookdale Railroad back to life, making it more beautiful than it ever had been. You might say that little people can have big dreams. Or, as Nathaniel himself would say, "Make no small plans."
Autorenporträt
Diane Bakos is a former TV news anchor/reporter/talk show host and an actor, and is the author of the family holiday story, WHACK'd. She discovered the Colebrookdale Railroad in 2020, and - struck by its beauty - she and her son volunteered for the train. After learning that its founder, Nathaniel Guest, had sold his own train layout in order to raise funds to save the once-defunct railroad, she knew she had to write his story. Having a son of her own who was in love with trains almost since birth, she wanted to let young people everywhere know that even little folks can have big dreams. Nathaniel made his come true - and you can, too!
