In the country a little boy and an old man find
themselves stopped at a railroad crossing. As they watch and listen to
the passing freight train roaring past they relish the sounds of the
quiet night that follows. A poetic and evocative picture book. "Times past are evoked in a combination of onomatopoeic text and richly hued illustrations, ... The effect of text and pictures is powerful - as close as one can come to total sensory involvement through the pages of a book." -- Horn Book, 1991. |
