Description

The New York Times bestselling team behind Steam Train, Dream Train returns with the sounds of a train headed off to dreamland!

The dream train pulls into the station, and one by one the train cars are loaded: polar bears pack the reefer car with ice cream, elephants fill the tanker cars with paints, tortoises stock the auto rack with race cars, bouncy kangaroos stuff the hopper car with balls.

Lightly abridged and revised from the original text, this playful board book includes a sound bar with five sounds - whistle, chugga, hiss, giggle, yawn - that bring interactive fun to the setting of the hit picture book.
