The Rain Train

(2) PS Illustrated by Brian Lovelock. "The ting of the rain-- / Ping-itta-pang..." Climb aboard the Rain Train for a gentle trip through a stormy night. De Roo's rhyming, lyrical text never derails; the onomatopoeic verse rolls rhythmically along, lulling listeners and moving the action forward. Lovelock's misty watercolor and ink illustrations, dominated by dusky purples and blues, convey the excitement of a special nighttime journey.
