(3) PS Illustrated by Mike Lowery. Mom, Dad, Brother, and Sister hop a train to a surprise (for readers, until the end) destination. The train goes through prairies, mountains, a ghost town, and the city. Jaunty rhyming text, complete with sound effects ("chug, chug, chug"; "squeak...screeeeeeeech!"), describes what the family sees. Everyone--train included--is smiling in Lowery's blocky mixed-media illustrations, and listeners will likely do the same.
