Justin Wilson is a Louisiana Legend. He has since passed away, but in his life he was a\\xa0beloved Cajun chef,\\xa0storyteller, comedian and poet who delighted fans around the world with his whimsical stories, songs, genial nature, and delightful sense of humor as he shared his Cajun recipes and heritage, through television, radio, stage and other venues.\\xa0\\u2028

I loved watching Justin on PBS, standing in a kitchen, telling stories and preparing Cajun dishes, when I was growing up. I\\u2019ll always smile to hear his famous catchphrases\\u2014\\u201dI Garontee!\\u201d and \\u201cHow Y\\u2019all Are?!\\u201d
Confetti Park recently partnered with his estate and\\xa0Justin Wilson Southern Products LLC\\xa0to help share his stories with a new generation of children. Soon, we might see Justin again on TV! And now you can get digital versions of his stories on Amazon and iTunes, and enjoy them on Confetti Park!

This particular story, which was first released in 1975, is called \\u201cThe Littlest Engine That Could.\\u201d You probably know the lassic American fairytale of a persevering little train\\u2014but this version has a twist\\u2014A Christmas Twist! This is the story of the \\u201chappy little train\\u201d that has to deliver presents to boys and girls over a steep mountain pass, so that the children have a happy Christmas.

And the other twist in this story is the lovely Cajun delivery and humor of Justin Wilson. Learn more about\\xa0Justin Wilson Southern Products LLC.
