Win-It Wednesday: The Little Engine That Could Prize Package!

by

Join me every week for Win-It Wednesday, with 24-hour giveaways just for you!

The Little Engine That Could is coming to a DVD near you on Tuesday, March 22nd!

“I think I can, I think I can…” The timeless story comes to life in this all-new, feature-length film filled with fun and adventure! When Little Engine (Alyson Stoner, Cheaper by the Dozen) must leave Dreamland to deliver toys into the real world, she sets her fears aside and learns that with a little determination and courage, anything is possible. Featuring an all-star cast, including Whoopi Goldberg (The View), Jamie Lee Curtis (Freaky Friday), Corbin Bleu (High School Musical) and Brenda Song (The Suite Life of Zack and Cody), this “fun family film” (Francine Brokaw, Los Angeles Family Magazine) is one you’ll enjoy again and again.

We had the opportunity to view an advance copy of The Little Engine That Could, and it was a hit with our family! It’s a twist on the classic story that kept my kids engaged for the duration. Plus as a parent I loved the positive messages delivered throughout the movie.

    This book was one of my favorites as a child. I just bought and read it to my son, who loves trains. Teaches about perseverance, kindness/helping others, positive can-do attitude pays off.

    Of course we’ve read this book! I believe it’s a requirement to growing up, right?

  11. KRISTINE

    Yes we read this story! I read it to my boys when they were younger and totally into trains and now I read it to my 2 1/2 yr old daughter and she says choo-choo as I read it to her :) I am excited about this movie!

  15. Jessica

    I read this to my son who is almost two at least once a day, and he “reads” it to his 3 month old sister almost hourly. haha. I can’t wait to see the film!!

  16. Crystal

    I am an email subscriber, and my little boy loves the book, would love to see this movie with him :-)

  23. Jen

    I had this read to me as a child, and I can not wait to share it with my little girl!!!! It is such an aspiring story!

  26. Natasha Rodriguez

    Yes, My grandmother would read it to us all the time! A Fav! I would love this for my daughters!

  27. Holly

    Absolutely I read this book as a kid, and it was one of the first books I bought when I had my daughter. There aren’t enough positive thinking books for kids. Definitely a classic.
