The Rain Train

All aboard! Take a train ride through a storm at night in a rhythmic read-aloud chugging with sound words and full of striking illustrations.

A pitter-pat-pat, a pitter-pat-pat,
A pittery-pittery-pittery-pat.

When it’s thundering down
on the roof, in the lane,
From the storm comes the call . . .
"All aboard the Rain Train!"

What child wouldn’t like to hop on a train, hand over his ticket, and set off on an exciting ride through a rainy night? Safe from the elements, a young boy listens and watchesâ€" in his seat, in the dining car, and snug in his sleeperâ€" as his train whooshes past city lights, over rivers, through tunnels, and straight on to morning.
