Barney Bros. Circus is on the road—but when their truck gets stuck on the railroad track, what will they do? Will the Cook shriek? Will the Imp stamp? Will the Grump thump? What if the train comes clakkity- clakking?!

You can order through Barnes & Noble or Amazon, but it'll be cheaper if you get it from me (Softcover $15, hardcover $20, plus postage—no handling charge) and I'll inscribe it as you wish. Please contact me at jburroway@fsu.edu and send me your address, inscription, and what copy or copies you would like.

Illustrator John Vernon Lord is Emeritus Head of the School of Design at the University of Brighton, England. He has illustrated books on poetry, myths, fables, legends, epics, sagas, and nonsense. He and Burroway also worked together on The Giant Jam Sandwich.

The Truck on the Track has also been set to music by composer Philip Wharton and will be performed again next June by the Iowa City String Orchestra, conducted by Carey Bostian. Look for a performance in your area!
