Summary
The Railway Children is the magical children's classic that has charmed readers for over a century. Follow the adventures of three siblings as they begin a new life in the countryside and discover the wonders of the railway behind their home.

 

After their father suddenly disappears, Bobbie, Peter, and Phyllis are forced to leave their London home and move to the countryside with their mother. Discovering the wonders of the railway behind their new cottage, the children take it upon themselves to solve the mystery of their missing father. Making friends with the station porter, Mr Perks, and the Old Gentleman who rides the train every morning, the siblings experience a bundle of escapades and close scrapes.

 

First published in 1906, E. Nesbit's brilliant novel has stood the test of time. An ideal read for fans of mystery and the magic of everyday adventures.

My girls and I have thoroughly enjoyed this book. We save it for rides in the van and it has kept us delightfully entertained. I think I enjoy it as much as my kids do. The adventures of the Railway Children kept us on the edges of our seats. Virginia Leishman is a wonderful narrator whose British accent adds authenticity to the story.
