The Polar Express and other books by Chris Van Allsburg

Book Review, © Copyright 2002, Jim Loy

These are great picture books for small children (and adults). The Polar Express is a train that goes from your front door to the North Pole, and back. Jumanji is a jungle board game that you may not live to finish. Zathura is an outer space board game that you may not live to finish. Others which I have not looked at are listed below. I assume that they are very good, too.
