***reading in all of us. It's called the BookWorm LighReads Challenge. It gives you the opportunity to read interesting books, answer simple questions and get rewarded. The book for this challenge is The Little Engine That Could by Watty Piper.

The story is about a train that was carrying toys and food for boys and girls. The little train was carrying a lot of good things when suddenly, it broke down and wouldn't move after several failed attempts. Other trains passed by, and occupants of this little train asked for help but none was willing to help out. When they had almost given up on them getting to their destination on time, another little train came to their rescue. Even though this new little blue train was smaller than the others, she believed she could help out and so she tried and indeed, she could help out. This is a great story that tells us we ca do anything we set our minds to. You always have to train the mind and believe in possibilities, and you will realize anything is possible.
