This is the story of a little girl who loves the boy who lives across the street because he has "train tracks" on his teeth. She believes there is a train in there somewhere, and is determined to ride it. When the train finally appears, it escapes from James' mouth and takes her for an exciting ride right through the centre of the earth to China - and back. A fantasy-adventure story, magnificently illustrated in full colour.

Includes an essay on the history of orthodontic braces.
