Children fond of chuffing like a train will find their pleasure ramped up to a whole new level in And The Train Goes… by William Bee: a charming chronicle of the passengers who board Dibnah the engine… Cheerful and spirited, this is one of those welcome picture books that turns the bedtime story into live entertainmentThe Independent
Rush hour at this station is full of lively sounds and motions, as a colourful collection of characters wait for the train. The illustrations have a quirky, nostalgic feel, while repetition and onomatopoeic language grows to a cacophony of sound… A great read-aloud book.Junior
