ChrisEboch said: This nonfiction picture book gives young readers a glimpse into the building of the Intercontinental railroad. The story is especially accessible because of the focus on Blind Tom, a horse. A repetitive pattern of questions and answers should keep children engaged. The paintings have a comfortable, slightly old-fashioned feel, in keeping with the historical content.
