"So you want a pet train? Well, of course you do!" Even kids who aren't railroad enthusiasts will get on board with this whimsical guide to train ownership. The first step is to tempt the right train to come home with you (smoke signals and offerings of coal are your best bet), followed by giving your new pet a name (does your train look like a Milo, or more of a Captain Foofamaloo?) before teaching your train tricks and taking it on play dates. Polished, cheerfully expressive artwork featuring a diverse cast of humans and locomotives rounds out this tongue-in-cheek tale. Picture books newsletter December 2013.
