Singer in the Snow by Louise Marley

All Aboard!

Take a journey through time with realistic illustrations of extraordinary trains from the past, present, and future. Arranged in chronological order, this coloring book takes you on a fascinating ride through a history of trains from the early 1800s to the 21st century. Highlights include:

- Coalbrookdale Locomotive, Stephenson's Rocket, and the Metropolitan Railway in England--groundbreaking trains from the 19th century
- EMD F40PH in Panama, transporting tourists between two oceans' coastal cities
- Maharajas' Express in India, offering luxury travel
- Novocherkassk 4ES5K freight train in Siberia, powering through grueling terrain
- Shanghai Maglev in China--the fastest commercial electric train, thanks to magnetic levitation, which means it doesn't have wheels or touch the ground
- L0 Series Maglev in Japan, an even quicker maglev operating in the not-so-distant future

Lousie Marley, a performer of classical music, is the author of several novels including The Terrorists of Irustan and The Glass Harmonica, which was the co-winner (with Ursula LeGuin's Tales from Earthsea) of the 2001 Endeavor Award for Outstanding Achievement in Science Fiction or Fantasy. She lives in Redmond, Washington with her husband and son.
