Description

Like The Little Engine That Could -- but with real history! Delmar the Dinky is a heartwarming children's story about courage, self-esteem, and adventure at the 1904 World's Fair.

In the bustling rail yards of St. Louis, a little trolley named Delmar dreams of more than just pushing freight cars. He longs for adventure -- especially the chance to carry passengers to the grand 1904 World's Fair, one of the most exciting events in American history.

But the big trains and trolleys laugh at him. They say a "dinky" like Delmar could never handle such an important job. When a group of travelers is stranded, Delmar finally gets his chance to prove them wrong.

Can this small but determined trolley rise to the challenge? With courage, perseverance, and self-esteem, Delmar shows that even the littlest can do great things.

This engaging story blends history with inspiration, making it a perfect choice for:

•
Homeschool read aloud books about history and social themes.

•
Children's books about trains and things that go.

•
Picture books about perseverance and self-esteem for building confidence.

•

•
