OLLIE TIBBLES: THE BOY WHO BECAME A TRAIN

Book ID/图书代码： 08855011B45038

English Summary/英文概要： “So what do you want to be when you grow up, Ollie?”
And as quick as a flash he responded, “I’m going to be a train.”
I remember I had laughed and said, “You mean you want to be a train driver, right?”
He put his hands on his hips, looking at me as though I had two heads as he retorted, “No! I want to be a train, silly, and I’m going to be someday.”
With raw emotion and honesty, Debi Tibbles will take readers on a journey filled with many bumps and turns beginning the day her four-year-old son Ollie was diagnosed with Medulloblastoma, a form of brain cancer. It is through the eyes of a loving mother that readers will experience the good and bad days that came with Ollie’s treatment and marvel at the love and happiness Ollie shared with everyone he came in contact with.
Ollie was only seven when he lost his battle, but his story is one of life, love, and inspiration. To this day, Ollie continues to teach us to embrace all the amazing possibilities life has to offer.
Metra partnered with the Illinois Chapter of the Make-A-Wish organization to make sure that Ollie’s wish came true. Riders of Chicago’s Metra Rail BNSF line can find engine 401, Oliver “Ollie” Tibbles, making his rounds daily.

Chinese Summary/中文概要： “奧利，等你長大了準備做什麼呢？”
他是如此迅速得回答道，“我將會成為一列火車。”
我記得我當時笑著說，“你的意思是想成為一名火車司機對嗎？”
他把手放在屁股上，盯著我反駁到，“不！我是想成為一列火車，那一天肯定會到來的。”

以最原始的情感和真誠，戴比.蒂布林斯將讀者帶到了一個充滿撞擊和轉折的旅途中，這個旅途，始於那個充滿陰霾的日子…

年僅四歲的兒子奧利，被診斷為患有成神經管細胞瘤，一種腦癌。從母親的眼睛裡，我們便可以讀出為奧利治療的日子裡每一個驚喜和黯然傷神的瞬間，而小奧利所分享的愛與快樂，更像是陽光一樣感染著讀者的心靈，是感動，是心疼，更多的卻是激勵。

奧利七歲時，離開我們做天使去了，但是他的故事卻永遠激勵著我們去大膽得擁抱生命中的不幸。

如果你會說，奧利的願望最終沒能實現，希望他能在天堂一路走好。

那麼你錯了，因為關於奧利這一段感人至深的故事還沒有劃上句話：因為，以 “奧利. 蒂布林斯”命名的列車，真就這樣朝著我們徐徐開來了…
