家里有小男孩的家長們一定都能理解孩子們對于交通工具,尤其是火車的熱愛。他們總是拿著玩具小火車,在家里的各個房間空梭著,口中唱著火車快飛這首童謠,玩具火車攀升至沙發上,就假裝己經飛過高山,經過浴室的洗手臺,就好比越過小溪。這本書可以說是童謠火車快飛的英文版本,書里面的兩列玩具火車在家里的各處移動,就好像真正的火車在翻山越嶺一般。有趣的情境可以激發孩子的想像力,獨特簡易的韻文,也能讓孩子在玩玩具火車時,可以一邊吟誦,一邊游戲。

Two-time Caldecott Medalists Leo and Diane Dillon (Why Mosquitoes Buzz in People's Ears and Ashanti to Zulu: African Traditions) have joined their ingenious artwork with the magic of Margaret Wise Brown's words. Brown, beloved author of Goodnight Moon, wrote Two Little Trains more than 50 years ago. Now a new generation of the youngest readers will be filled with wonder at this timeless story with its splendid new illustrations.
Two trains are heading west. One is streamlined, the other small and old. On their parallel journeys, the trains encounter rivers, hills, snow, and dust storms, but neither is thwarted. But look closer and see that these two trains, though similar in many ways, have a surprising difference: one is the real thing, traversing the countryside, and the other is a toy, making its way across rug fringe "tracks," along the edge of a bathtub, through a tunnel made from a book, and past a broom and dust pan. Brown's brilliant yet simple text and the Dillons' clever and striking pictures, will serve as inspiration to many flights of fancy in young readers' minds. Truly exquisite.
