The deluxe illustrated songbook from the one and only Sandra Boynton, is full of attitude, full of fun, and all lit up with star power. Dog Train is a Recording Industry Association of America Gold Album with more than 600,000 copies in print. Original rock-and-roll music, written by Sandra Boynton, and sung by rock favorites like Blues Traveler, The Spin Doctors, Hootie and the Blowfish, and more! Arrangements and music production by that renowned team, Boynton & Ford—who were Grammy-nominated for Philadelphia Chickens. They have two Gold Records and one Platinum. Over three million of their albums have been sold and loved.

Blues Traveler performs a stomping version of the title song, a moody rock journey that Boynton wrote especially for them. And then there’s Alison Krauss with “Evermore.” And Steve Lawrence and Eydie Gormé—really—who do the “Boring Song.”

The Spin Doctors, who channel rock’s rebellious side—with a taste of punk—for “Tantrum”: “No No No, I don’t want to, I don’t want to./No no no, I don’t want to, no no./Leave me alone. Leave me alone./LEAVE ME ALONE.” And the sweetly unexpected pairing of “Weird Al” Yankovic and Kate Winslet (yep, Kate Winslet) as a duet singing “I Need a Nap.”

The full-color book features a portion of each song’s lyrics set as a little story, illustrated with Boynton’s irresistible hippos, cows, dogs, and more dogs. Full lyrics appear in the back.
