The Railway Children (Wordsworth Exclusive Collection)

Description:

When Father goes away with two strangers one evening, the lives of Roberta, Peter and Phyllis are shattered. They and their mother have to move from their comfortable London home to go and live in a simple country cottage, where Mother writes books to make ends meet. However, they soon come to love the railway that runs near their cottage, and they make a habit of waving to the Old Gentleman who rides on it. They befriend the porter, Perks, and through him learn railway lore and much else. They have many adventures, and when they save a train from disaster, they are helped by the Old Gentleman to solve the mystery of their father's disappearance, and the family is happily reunited.

4.0 out of 5 stars A wonderful trip down memory lane

W.A.R. · 23 February 2025

It’s been a wonderful trip down memory lane reading this. When we had no social media or mobile phones, and children were out playing all day.It’s a quick read with each chapter giving a small adventure wound into the lives of the three children.I loved the kindness shown throughout - the expectation that everyone is nice and theoughtful was a pleasure to read.Bobbie was my favourite character- although so young, she showed such resilience and maturity in what must have been such a change in their lives, and her care and devotion to her siblings and mother was wonderful.
