The Train Ride

Paperback (Candlewick Press March 15, 1997)
PreSchool-Grade 1?A rhyming text, similar in cadence to Bill Martin's Brown Bear, Brown Bear, What Do You See (Holt, 1983), sets the tone for a ride on the rails. A little girl and her mother board the train in the city and travel through the countryside to the seaside town where the child's grandmother lives. The verse runs below the full-bled chalk-pastel illustrations and repeatedly asks, "What shall I see? What shall I see?" The turn of the page reveals a new panorama, the reply, and the refrain, "That's what I see, That's what I see." Soft-edged artwork, done in warm, sunny colors, is appealing in its simplicity
