The Goodnight Train

The Goodnight Train by June Sobel

My rating: 3 of 5 stars


I expected this to be somewhat similar to Goodnight Moon and picked up it up for my nephew, who loves trains. Instead of being about saying goodnight to several things, it is about a ride on a literal train as the passengers try to fall asleep. There are fast and slow parts, hills and clouds, lights and sounds. Eventually, as the train arrives at the station, everything is quiet, including the train. It's a cute story for little kids and a fun adaptation on the "goodnight" theme that appears to be so popular for children these days.
