Daisy and Jacob Ride the Train (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781649520708)

Let's ride a steam train!

Daisy is just like you, and so are the special friends she meets on her adventures. Her brother, Jacob, loves big steam engines and the loud sounds they make. Join Daisy and Jacob as they ride a passenger coach up into the mountains of Colorado. Even though Jacob uses a large wheelchair to get around, he doesn't have any trouble making new friends, learning about trains, and finding ways to have fun.

Daisy and Jacob Ride the Train is an exciting tale for ages four to eight, but it's also an effective resource for educators and parents whose children may wonder about kids with physical differences. The character of Jacob is based on the author's son, who has a genetic syndrome and is missing both his feet. He, like Jacob, has a passion for trains and has ridden many real-life railroads across the United States. Encourage your children to be friendly and respectful to children like Jacob when they meet.
