Youth level.
A gentle night watchman at the railroad yard lulls anxious train engines to sleep by singing just the right song. A magical betime story perfect for sleepless nights! Niccolini is no ordinary night watchman in the train yard. He has a special talent: he can sing overwrought locomotives to sleep. Before long, parents get wind of Niccolini's skill and bring their crying babies, sleepless children, and barking dogs to the rail yard, hoping to soothe them into slumber. But how will Niccolini's gentle song be heard in all this racket? Gorgeously brought to life with dramatic oil paintings, Niccolini's Song is music so sweet, and a story so comforting, even the most restless young listeners will drift off to peaceful dreams.
