Overview

Left behind in China by her father, who has gone to North America to find work, Choon-yi has made her living by selling her paintings in the market. When her father writes one day & asks her to join him, she joyously sets off, only to discover that he has been killed. Choon-yi sees the railway & the giant train engines that her father died for, & she is filled with an urge to paint them. But her work disappoints her until a ghostly presence beckons her to board a train & go on a fantastical journey. Ghostly, magical & yet redeeming, this tale by Chinese-Canadian author Paul Yee is superbly illustrated by Harvey Chan, who is also Chinese-Canadian.
