Queue up for a whistle-stop tour of trains of all kinds, narrated in lively verse and featuring dynamic retro artwork.

Rows of grooves, cables, and bars. Graffiti rockin’ out the cars. A badge of rust. A proud oil stain. There’s nothin’ plain about a train.

Trains of all shapes and sizes are coming down the track — bullet train, sleeper train, underground train, zoo train, and more. All aboard!

Skila Brown’s first-class poems, as varied as the trains themselves, reflect the excitement of train travel, while Jamey Christoph’s vintage-style illustrations provide a wealth of authentic detail to pore over.

• Train enthusiasts will love poring over the vintage illustrations and seeing all the details. 
• Illustrator Jamey Christoph is a rising talent; although this is his first book with Candlewick Press.
• A final spread of train facts completes this fantastic collection of poems about trains.
