Clarion Polar Express 30th Anniversary Edition

One of my favorites. All children should have this book. Art work fabulous.

Livro lindo

My children received this book for christmas and it reminded me so much of my childhood. I cry every time. This edition is beautiful. They loved the little ornament too!

I have to give this book 5 stars since it was the inspiration for my favorite Christmas movie of all time; it is meant as a bedtime story for children, only 32 pages, most of it filled with beautiful pastel pictures which I'm sure will delight toddlers and reads very well; it has a Christmas ornament inside and a link to a website where you can download an audio file of Liam Neeson reading the story; I'm sure kids will love to hear it over and over; as a grown up who saw the movie first, I have to tip my hat to Robert Zemeckis, Tom Hanks and the writers who expanded quite a bit and made it a much fuller, longer and magical Christmas tale; If you are a great fan of The Polar Express like me, I would suggest you buy: "The Art of The Polar Express", which is a jaw dropping 132 pages "making of"' filled with pictures from the movie as well as many characters and landscapes in different stages of development. All in all, a magical book for all!

映画を始めに知って、大好きになって絵本を購入しました。絵本を読むことで、双方の芸術作品としてのリスペクトが深まります。絵はとても暖かい優しいタッチで描かれています。内容もとても素敵！！大切にします。
