Inhaltsangabe

Follow Faith on a joyful journey on a New York City train, where she learns a delicious lesson about courage and being kind.

A perfect pick for fans of Milo Imagines the World, Last Stop on Market Street, and Saturday at the Food Pantry.

Faith takes the train with her mother most days, and today she's eating one of Grandma's delicious sandwiches. Isaiah, who usually sings a song on their ride home, instead asks a question that quiets a busy train into awkward silence.

“Can anyone please spare some change? A bite to eat?”

When Faith sees his face, her heart goes thump-thump-thump. Will she have the courage to answer?

This sweet and relatable picture book from author Kesi Augustine and illustrator Mokshini is sure to spark conversations about the small ways we can show kindness and help people in need.

Winner of the 2026 Ezra Jack Keats Award, honored at the Society of Illustrator’s Original Art Show 2025, and selected as a finalist for the Jane Addams Children's Book Award!

Über die Autorinnen und Autoren

Kesi Augustine is an author, educator, and scholar. She was born in Syracuse, New York, and raised downstate in New York City. Kesi filled her summers with books from local Queens libraries. Nowadays, when Kesi isn’t reading or writing, she is teaching language arts. Kesi lives in Central Florida.

Mokshini is a multidisciplinary artist and the illustrator of Faith Takes the Train and The Golden Hoops. Her creative output ranges from painting to concept sketching to editorial collaborations and textile design. In Mokshini’s work, you can find her signature witty yet sophisticated take on daily life in the city, which is born of her whimsical portrayal of characters and a passion for storytelling. The inspiration she gets from everyday elements of New York City—its residents' eccentric personalities, the fashion, the architecture—are why New Zealander Mokshini now calls Brooklyn home.
