\nTrain Game Excerpt:
\nJames sighed a long, deep exhale. It was not a like a nice, relaxing Dragon Breath. It was an annoyed, disappointed kind of sigh. It was a Sunday afternoon in deep summer, and James longed to be outside playing at the park. He pressed his nose up against the front window, looking out at the park across the street. If he lookedcarefully, he could see the playground in the distance.
\n
\nThe playground at the park was one of his very favorite places. The playground had ropes to climb on \u2014 perfect for pretending to be a pirate! \u2014 a twisty slide, monkey bars, and even a tire swing. James and his sister Julia would take turns pushing each other on the swing. Julia usually let James go first, because he was the youngest, and she\u2019d push him round and round and round. When he got too dizzy, they would switch places, until Julia got too dizzy.
