The Little Engine That Could by Watty Piper

A small, determined blue engine takes on the challenge of pulling a long train over a steep mountain after larger, more powerful engines refuse to help. Despite her size and inexperience, she perseveres with the mantra "I think I can, I think I can," ultimately succeeding in delivering the toys and treats to the children on the other side. This story highlights themes of optimism, determination, and the power of believing in oneself.
