Additional Information

The Little Engine that Could is possibly the most popular American children's story. Originally published in 1930, it tells the story of a tiny engine that perseveres to pull a train up a mountain. The engine repeats "I think I can" until it ultimately succeeds. Since its first telling, the little engine has been gendered as a "she." The tale has thus been read by feminists as an optimistic lesson in fighting for justice.
