This and the other books in the series are made even better by Jane Chapman’s endearing illustrations. I love that all three of them had fun singing the book together as we drove back to our house. Ages 1-6. The additional verses to our favorite rhymes are so much fun! We had a copy of this book in our back seat the other day when I was picking up some girls for a play date with my ten-year-old daughter. I’ve already mentioned that we love Iza Trapani’s books. After each pick-up we read, “Dump it in, smash it down, drive around the trashy town!” The simple illustrations, predictable text, and of course the subject (trash!) will likely make this a winner at your house, too. Ages 2-5. Gilly drives around Trashy Town collecting garbage. This was a big favorite at our house when my older boys were little. What will switchman Jack do? This book is so fun to read and listen to! Ages 3-6. ![]() Rhythmic rhyme tells the story of an ant walking on the railroad track… while a freight train comes right his way. They wanted to hear it every time they caught a glimpse of it. This book was a favorite of my Five and Seven back when they were three and four years old. I Saw an Ant on the Railroad Track, by Joshua Prince My kids can’t get enough of this one, and I love to sing it! “Shoo fly, don’t bother me, shoo fly, don’t bother me…” Ages 3-6. We enjoy many of Iza Trapani’s books in which she takes a familiar song and adds verses with her own unique illustrations.
