The appearance of the cars and clothing of the people helps children understand the book is from a different time period, the olden days as some people say. Things to highlight include trains used to be a way for families to travel and not everyone could drive or have a car. Do the children notice mothers holding babies and the absence of car seats or baby carriers? Old fashioned cars are easy for children to recognize from the film CARS. They even know what a Hudson car is, which was something that was forgotten for many decades. The children may think riding at night would be exciting, and may notice some people had sleeping bunks and some didn't. The "pass the bottle" line would probably not be too noticed by children, but be aware the illustration includes a brown paper bag. The gambling and cigarette could also be skipped-over unless the children notice, but they may not. You may want to gently guide some discussion about the references to "old black men" and "the sons of Pullman Porters" as part of the children's education about civil rights. This book could become an entire history lesson or enjoyed as a song. ( )
