Two little trains are heading West. One is a shiny, streamlined train, moving fast. The other is a little old train, moving not so fast. Both will travel through long dark tunnels, through snow and dust. What else can they have in common? Much more than you think!
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.

作者についても一言。
"Goodnight Moon"、"The Runaway Bunny"で知られるマーガレット W.ブラウンさんの1947年の作に、2001年にDillon夫妻が挿絵を新たに描いて発行されたのがこの本です。 文の作者もすごいが、この挿絵画家もすごい。 卓越した挿絵に与えられる「コルデコット賞」を2度も受賞しているつわものです。
後世に残る絵本だと思っています。
