I Dream of Trains by Angela Johnson

3.0

This breathtakingly illustrated picture book taught me a new reading strategy; read the "About this book" on the last page FIRST. I had no idea what this book was about, NO IDEA. But I loved its poetic imagery anyway. Now that I know (having read the last page), I liked it even more the second time.

This is about the Great Migration & John Luther "Casey" Jones's possible impact on it.

I'd recommend this to:
African American children and/or students studying the Great Migration period of US history or sharecropping.
