Book Synopsis



Winter has arrived and it's time for the animals to set off to warmer lands. Hop on the Winter Train and start a magical journey about friendship and cooperation!

Winter is drawing near, and as they do every year around this time, the cold-natured animals in the forest will catch the train that will take them to warmer lands. Most of them will start to pack their bags, checking if they missed something. Saying goodbye to their friends who'll stay to spend the winter there will be difficult, but they will meet again soon when summer arrives. It's time! The train is leaving! Southern Forest, here they go! The trip is going smoothly, but hey, where is Squirrel?

A delightful tale of friendship and solidarity, The Winter Train takes young readers on a touching journey that brings out the very best in everyone.



Review Quotes




"A pleasing import. Fine read-aloud for a fall storytime." --Kirkus Reviews

"The Winter Train takes readers on a journey about friendship, while also in a very subtle way, teaching them about hibernation. Whether children are a fan of trains or woodland animals, this is a story they'll love. The illustrations are simply adorable. Isern and Garcia's works complement each other perfectly. I'm looking forward to reading more of their books. This is a book that would make a great addition in any home, school, or classroom library." --Mundie Kids
