The Tiny Train to Nowhere in Particular

A free story for little kids · read aloud by parents

A tiny train called Tilly chugged nowhere in particular, just happy to chug. She passed mountains made of pillows and rivers of lemonade.

'Don't you have a destination?' asked a wise old owl. Tilly puffed. 'The trip IS the place, friend.'

She delivered letters to clouds and carried a snail who'd always wanted to see the next hill.

When she finally parked for the night, Tilly wasn't anywhere special — but she was everywhere happy, and that, she decided, was exactly enough.
