Amazon.com Review
One couldn't select a more delightful and exciting premise for a children's book than the tale of a young boy lying awake on Christmas Eve only to have Santa Claus sweep by and take him on a trip with other children to the North Pole. And one couldn't ask for a more talented artist and writer to tell the story than Chris Van Allsburg. Allsburg, a sculptor who entered the genre nonchalantly when he created a children's book as a diversion from his sculpting, won the 1986 Caldecott Medal for this book, one of several award winners he's produced. The Polar Express rings with vitality and wonder.

A family treasure January 20, 2000
4 out of 4 found this review helpful
This book is a keepsake for our family. It is given extra care due to the quality of the story and book. The pictures are large, beautiful and unique. The art work was what first caught my attention. It is a wonderful Christmas story, but we read it throughout the year. I think it is an extra special story for boys. My 5 year old son loves this book.
