A board book version of the chugging bedtime tale, Where Do Steam Trains Sleep at Night? to follow the smashing success of the Where Do Diggers Sleep at Night? board book.

Take the train to dreamland with this board book version of the chugging bedtime tale, the perfect companion to Where Do Diggers Sleep at Night? and Where Do Jet Planes Sleep at Night?

Have you ever wondered what little trains do when it’s time for bed? Same things you do! Steam trains, freight trains, subways—and more!—wash up, have a snack, load their teddies for storytime, and get rocked to sleep by mommy and daddy trains beneath a blanket of stars. Little one-track-mind train lovers will be tickled to see how bedtime is just the same for their favorite vehicles as it is for them.
 
“Train lovers will be sure to take this bedtime read for a ride.” —School Library Journal

About the authors

BRIANNA CAPLAN SAYRES

Brianna Caplan Sayres used to tell her second graders, “When I grow up, I’m going to be a writer.” “But you are grown up, Mrs. Sayres,” her students would protest. Well, Brianna is still not quite sure she’s grown up, but she has grown into a writer. Brianna’s picture books include the Where Do Diggers Sleep at Night? series, illustrated by Christian Slade, Tiara Saurus Rex, illustrated by Mike Boldt, and Why Did the Chicken Cross the Road?: A Hardboiled Mystery, illustrated by Mark Fearing. Can you guess what the next diggers book will be? If you said, Diggers Love Their Grandparents (coming in 2026!), you were right! 
 
Brianna has recently returned to her hometown, Seattle, Washington, where she loves to have adventures with her two wonderful boys. You can visit Brianna on the web at briannacaplansayres.com or facebook.com/authorbrianna
