Hop on a train across the Pennsylvania countryside in this exciting new children's book by a local author! Nick is a steam engine whose tracks take a scenic path, but workmen at the station have forgotten the passenger's lunches. How can Nick help them out?
Nick is a steam engine on the East Broad Top Railroad. He loves clacking over the tracks and looking out over the beautiful Pennsylvania countryside, but upon reaching the picnic grove Nick learns that the picnic baskets have been left at the station! With people getting hungry, can Nick find a way to get the food to the picnic grove and the waiting passenger's?
Nick Full Steam Ahead is a locally-focused children's book by a local author. From the trestle to a local ice cream stand, and from a cozy farmhouse to the gorgeous picnic grove, visitors to Rockhill Furnace, Pennsylvania can see all the sights from the book when they ride the train.
With its colorful illustrations, the story is based on Colleen Booher's real-life childhood in Three Springs, and it is her joy to introduce young readers to the East Broad Top Railroad. Colleen will always remember the sound of the licorice-black steam engine that chugged past her childhood home, along with its clouds of white, steaming smoke.
So hop on board for a relaxing ride! This story is perfect for bedtime, classroom group reading sessions, and general story time with family. A wide world is waiting in Nick Full Steam Ahead.
