Comment from Pam Lonsdale

Excellent

I really love your poetry, and this is no exception. The rhyming is wonderful, and it reads like a song being sung.

What I like best about this one is that you've made Blue human - with feelings such as pride. And he's the hero! What a great story for children.

The entire presentation is terrific - words, image, and background color (blue, of course!).

Love the last line - he'd come back from the dead, then died again for good. We'll remember you, Ole Blue!

Congratulations on number 100!

Excellent

Oh! How my little grandsons love trains, Jim, and they are just little fellas!
Your poem reads smoothly and tells an awesome tale.
I do remember Bill Peet's works, although I don't believe I have any of his books in my children's library.
Captivating and rollicking.
Thank you for sharing!

Best Wishes!

Thanks, Diane. My grandsons loved them too when they were younger. I just hope little kids won't find the ending too disappointing.
