If you were a beloved children’s character, which one would you be?
There’s an entire world of beloved children’s characters that I know nothing about. Many have been added in the last decade. So, I am going to go old school. Really old school.
Sometimes, I’m the one everyone depends on. Getting things organized, making sure there’s food in the house, and bills get paid. Even when I’m burnt out, I keep pumping. Yep, I’m The Little Engine That Could.
The basis for the most popular version of the story was written in 1902, although the book most if us are familiar with was published in 1930. That predates even me. The story has gone through many revisions to bring it up-to-date, and I have, too.
Like the Little Engine, sometimes I get tired and want to give up, but with another Chug and Puff, somehow I keep going.

Wow, I think I’m even older than you and I’ve never heard of this one! When I saw the train I thought of Thomas the Tank Engine.
Maybe it’s a US thing? Although my research showed there were versions published worldwide.
That’s a new one on me. For a moment, I thought you were going to say Casey Jones!!!
Except I think Casey Jones was an actual person.
Awwww. I loved the little engine that could, both when I was a kid and when I read it to my kids. @samanthabwriter from
