Kit's Railway Adventure is a little light on story, but it's one of those books that's got things for you to pull out, explore, keep, and use. It's a fun book to flip through and there's just enough story to keep it interesting aside from all the fun bits to explore.

This obscure, extra Kit book was a fun discovery. The book is written like a travel journal, and even though it is light on story, it is very entertaining and educational, addressing common travel experiences from the era and introducing the reader to different locations throughout America. In this story, Kit is traveling with Aunt Millie to visit Charlie in Glacier Park, where he is doing CCC work, because she won the trip as a prize for an essay contest.

The book has some interactive elements, and souvenirs that you can pull out. Amazingly, the used copy that I bought online still has all of them, and I had a lot of fun looking through this and seeing everything. Until this came up recently in a ThriftBooks search, I never knew that this book existed, but I'm glad to add it to my collection, and hope to get the Samantha and Molly ones as well. There are only three in this series, but fortunately for me, two out of the three are my favorite American Girls.

I was pleased and excited to find this one second hand. Ever since reading about Molly's Route 66 Adventure I was anxious to find the other two books. Even though most of the pull-out surprises for missing in my copy due to being second-hand I still enjoyed the story and we'll definitely be reading it more times than anyone should ever read a book LOL

This book is a fun addition to the Kit world. I love the pullouts and interactive pieces in the story.
