23. Speaking Of The Author…
While we’re talking about Chris Van Allsburg, did you know he is the genius behind other fantasy films?
Chris Van Allsburg…
The wild imagination of Van Allsburg didn’t just come up with Jumanji and Zathura you know!

It turns out we have a lot to thank him for including the equally iconic, Polar Express!
The Book…
The picture book was first published in 1985, just four years after Jumanji took the world by storm.

Both stories featured young boys, who were suddenly taken from their homes and forced to face life threatening dangers for many years.
The Film…
Just like Jumanji, The Polar Express was turned into a hit movie and this time, Tom Hanks was cast!
