Riassunto

Ride the rails of the night train in this beautifully rendered journey conducted by renowned artist Wendell Minor and frequent collaborator Robert Burleigh.

Rhyming, lyrical text describes the sights and sounds of a nighttime journey from country to city on a passenger train in the 1940s. Largely painted in black and white, breathtaking illustrations feature pops of color as the train continues its trip until the full-color spectrum appears as dawn breaks and passengers arrive at the station. A nostalgic and innovative choice for readers fascinated by trains.

Train ride! Bump-bump.
Chug-chug. Slow.
Faster. Faster.
Off we go.

Long train snaking
through the night.
Dim. Gray.
Nowhere light.

Night train, night train,
hold-on-tight train.

Peek. Black.
Nose to glass.
Watch the colors
as we pass.

Clang-clang. Ding-ding.
Town ahead.
Gate down. Blink-blink.
Hello, red.
