The Polar Express by Chris Van Allsburg Late one Christmas Eve after
the town has gone to sleep, the boy boards the mysterious train that
waits for him: the Polar Express bound for the North Pole. When he
arrives, Santa offers the boy any gift he desires. The boy modestly asks
for one bell from the harness of the reindeer. The gift is granted. On
the way home the bell is lost. On Christmas morning, the boy finds the
bell under the tree. The mother of the boy admires the bell, but laments
that it is broken, for you see, only believers can hear the sound of
the bell. In strange and moving shades of full color art, Chris Van
Allsburg creates an otherworldly classic of the Christmas season.
