"Zoey's Adventure (The Train Trip_-- a review" A small work of charm by an able new author. Griggs captures well that childhood experience that questions everything and finds fun everywhere. Train travel has now become an adventure for most Americans where once it meant travel itself. Now in our world of fast jets and the endless Interstate, we have lost that opportunity to contemplate the passing terrain, to wonder the different cars,to socialize over dinner, or to lean out the window into the passing pungent breeze that only train travel provides. Griggs book does just that and provides its reader with an excellent hour of detailed diversion with almost any child, or for the child to enjoy alone, yea even for older reader like this one, who can only dimly recall the distant rolling joys of passing by towns and fields on the shining, fast rails of youth.

"GREAT book for all to read" I love reading this book. I will enjoy reading it over and over again to my boys! This is a book that you could get lost in! It will make you think of the times you traveled with your family. The writer knew exactly what to do when writing this book!!! Thank you for writing such a wonderful book. Melissa Curtsinger
"Adventures by Zoey-The Train" I read the book and was TOTALLY taken back to my youth. I was in awe reading how the girls traveled and learned about the different parts of our country. I was amused about them learning about the bathroom, dinner arrangements, meeting new people and grandma. I loved the book and read it often to my neice. She loves it too. Hooray for someone who can tell a story as it happens. Stephanie
"We need more books like this!" What fun to see this adventure thru a child's eyes! It's so refreshing when an author is open to what the children really are saying -- not trying to put words in their mouths. Adults and children alike will want to share many more adventures with Zoey. I hope they travel thru Canada and Europe by train! Annabelle Cambier
"Adventures by Zoey" I enjoyed reading the book, and i'm sure my children will too. I believed the writter to be a young lady having her first experience on a train. She details her journey suffiently to be understood but not so long as to keep another youth from enjoying the tale. Ever wonder if a stuffed animal was alive ? read this and find out !
