If You Like Chris Van Allsburg, You’ll Go All In for Caralyn Buehner

The magic of Chris Van Allsburg’s fantasy tales (think favorites like "Jumanji," "Zephyr" and "The Polar Express") seems to come back to life in Buehner's stories of a farmer that grows balloons and a night watchman that sings anxious locomotives to sleep. Whereas Van Allsburg books are great for any cold winter's eve, Buehner has the perfect stories for the holidays. We recommend you start with "Snowmen at Night."
