[publisher: Houghton Mifflin, Boston] Hardcover ex school library 1942 edition, later printing, no date ?1974, illustrated by Caldecott winner Virginia Lee Burton. You can still find books like this in thrift shops and at sales, but it's getting to be a while [30 to 60 years], particularly for children's books and library discards. One of the last in the great tradition of children's train books, this one is in very good minus condition, but it's gorgeous all the same, a story of a dog so fast he could race trains, just for the joy of it. Burton wrote and illustrated something like seven books, and provided the art for another four or so. She died at 59 in 1968. In 2007 a first edition of her book, The Little House, sold for just under $10,000.
