Train Song

(4) PS Illustrated by Donald Saaf. A young boy plays with his toy trains, while waiting for the daily freight train to "chug-a-chug-chug and clickety-clack" through the nearby mountains. The rhyming text is uneven in places, but the gouache paintings capture the animals onboard with whimsy and document the train's long ride in bright, simple detail.
