Though the Young and adult readers around the world should be eternally grateful to American writer Chris Van Allsburg for his dozens of imperishable fairy tales, to which one can easily pass a warm evening at home. Coming up with extraordinary characters and putting them in an unimaginable environment, the writer always projects his fantasy on our reality, so that by means of fantastic tools to instruct their readers, once again explain how to build a competent human relationships, and why family and friends, in spite of all the troubles should always be in the first place, while everything else must wait in the wings. Of course, Chris Van Allsburg's most famous and revered work is Jumanji, an amazing, intriguing and suspenseful story that flirts with genuine danger and does not shy away from pouring out in acceptable doses the most real nightmare flows from the main characters' subconscious on the reader. And it was just the famous adaptation of the tale, released in the efforts of director Joe Johnston, allowed the writer to find true fame and become one of the most sought-after authors on both sides of the ocean. But for all the well-deserved regalia of 'Jumanji', it would be somewhat unfair to link Chris van Allsburg's name exclusively with the adventures of Alan Parrish and his unexpected companions. The writer's creative legacy extends much further. And not the least of his works is 'The Polar Express', a small but fascinating and colorful book that tells the story of how one day a train arrives at Santa Claus's with children who deserve to see a miracle.
