Here Comes the Train

(3) PS Engaging watercolor and ink illustrations follow a father, daughter, and son on their weekly bike trip to watch trains from a footbridge that crosses over railroad tracks. The relative lack of action--much of the book involves waiting--is compensated for by warm, thoughtful description and palpable excitement arising from the moment the spectators first see the "tiny speck in the distance."
