Book Description
These poems survey the human spirit in a way that is both accessible and challenging. Even though he retains aspects of the wry, funny voice that inhabits his earlier work, Zimmer constructs a more mature collection, with a vision that explores limits, the difficulties of aging, and the inevitable presence of mortality. What is perhaps surprising is how often this vision is profoundly optimistic, despite the high price required to purchase it.

Book Description
In simple, powerful words and vibrant illustrations, Donald Crews evokes the rolling wheels of that childhood favorite: a train. This Caldecott Honor Book features bright colors and bold shapes. Even a child not lucky enough to have counted freight cars will feel he or she has watched a freight train passing after reading Freight Train. Donald Crews used childhood memories of trains seen during his travels to his grandparents' farm in the American South as the inspiration for this timeless favorite. New York magazine's The Strategist chose Freight Train as one of the "Best (Nonobvious) Baby Books to Bring to a Shower." As The Strategist stated: "The Caldecott Honor Book is spare and minimal in both art and text and follows the journey of a freight train and all its cars until it rolls off the page and into the distance. It’s a good way to learn all the different names of train cars, too." Red caboose at the back, orange tank car, green cattle car, purple box car, black tender and a black steam engine . . . freight train.
