Trainstop

By Barbara Lehman

Lehman is well known for her wordless books that encourage readers to use their imaginations to enter parallel or unusual worlds that collide with each other. This newest title is about a girl who is gazing out the windows of the train she is riding. The train makes a stop and as she is looking out the window she sees tiny people near the train. She exits the train and at the beckoning of the miniature people helps to save a tiny pilot who has become stuck in a tree. The girl reboards the train and wonders if the whole experience is a dream. But at the end she finds something that makes her believe it really happened.
