Young readers will enjoy this classic retelling of
an aunt who is traveling by train with rowdy
nieces and a nephew. Like all children, their
patience is limited and requires tons of
entertainment. The aunt starts telling a story,
but is unable to satisfy the curiosity of the
children. Meanwhile, a man, also traveling on
the train, grows impatient, and decides to
intervene and tell a different kind of story.
