Publisher Description
An uplifting story celebrating the power of working together by Matilda Woods, author of The Boy, the Bird and the Coffin Maker.
With a shrill whistle the Night Train is off, delivering its passengers to children's dreams. The yeti, the ballet dancer, the friendly monster and the princess all have starring roles.
Then the train comes to an unexpected halt. A tree has fallen across the track and there's no way the guard can move it on his own.
It's a race against time and the passengers will need to use all their talents to get the train moving again. Can they reach their dreams before midnight?

"Clyde Edgerton is one of my favorite authors. I'm not very interested in music, so didn't enjoy this as much as some of his other books, but there was also a lot about family. Edgerton has an amazing ear for dialog. "

" I have enjoyed other books by this author but this one didn't hold the interest for me. It did have a good sense of time and place. "

" Ugh...I did not like this book and wouldn't recommend it to anyone. It started getting good about Chapter 27. "
— Shelly, 9/17/2011 -
" I'm very disappointed in this book. Two of my favorite books are by Clyde Edgerton: Walking Across Egypt and The Floatplane Notebooks. The last few of his were not up to those. "

" I really liked the quirky characters in this book. They reminded me of something else I've recently read, The Heart is a Lonely Hunter by Carson McCullers. A good and quick read. "
