{"product_id":"the-prairie-train-9780517709887","title":"The Prairie Train","description":"\u003cp\u003e\"Once upon a time there was a train that dreamed of being a boat.\"  It was the train that took immigrants seeking a better life in the New World across the endless flat prairies to San Francisco. And it was the train that took Conor  a small homesick boy from Ireland  on the voyage he would remember for the rest of his life. While on that train  Conor dreams of being back in Connemara  Ireland  with his grandfather when suddenly  to his amazement  the waving prairie grass becomes the sea and the train on which he is traveling  like a boat  sails across it right back to his home. How Conor comes to realize that the home hes left behind will always be with him provides a reassuring and deeply satisfying resolution to this poignant tale. The dreamlike paintings by Caldecott Honor artist Eric Rohmann combine with the lyrical text of Irish playwright Antoine  Flatharta to make this one of the most memorable books of this--or any--season.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"My Store","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67900223160373,"sku":"ByrdShop_0517709880","price":35.14,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0627\/8139\/0901\/files\/9780517709887.jpg?v=1793805074","url":"https:\/\/atxbooks.com\/products\/the-prairie-train-9780517709887","provider":"ATX Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
