Steam Train, Dream Train 1-2-3

PUBLISHERS WEEKLY FEB 15, 2016

This spin-off of Rinker and Lichtenheld's bestselling Steam Train, Dream Train takes readers from one to 10 as they check out the activities taking place in a string of train cars. The events pictured in Lichtenheld's humorously detailed images aren't always terribly sleep-inducing three rabbits bounce on a bed, four turtles pretend to drive race cars on a rack but Rinker's soothing rhymes exert a steady, calming presence: "Two squirrels stack six balls up high,/ two other balls go flying by," she writes as kangaroos play basketball in a hopper car. Available simultaneously: Steam Train, Dream Train Colors. Up to age 2.
