Summary
Chug-A-Chug was the result of a little boy named Will who loved trains, but would not go to sleep. Go figure! His father would often make up lyrics to popular children’s songs and sing them to Will to help him fall asleep. Chug-A-Chug was one of these songs. Will liked it so much that his father made it into a book with drawings that Will’s Grandma Carla had made. This “first edition” was bound, brought to pre-school for show and tell and literary history was made! Will and his father had built a large model railroad in their Chicago basement so when it came time to illustrate the real Chug-A-Chug book, it provided the perfect setting and, thanks to the amazing photography of Ray Nilsen, the book came to life. Will, and his father, Scott, hope you and your family enjoy reading the book as much as they did making it.
Chug-A-Chug comes to life through the amazing photography of Ray Nilsen, a commercial product photographer in Chicago. Outside of his day job, Ray’s passion is bringing miniatures to life by placing them in sets made to resemble the real world. This made Ray a perfect match for illustrating this book. For Chug-A-Chug, Ray used many elements pieced together to make the various backgrounds. Ray’s other work can be viewed at http://www.flickr.com/photos/rnilsen/.
