It's over fifty years since the publication of the first Railway Series stories by the Rev. W. Awdry. To celebrate, the publishers have reissued them in six special books, each containing four famous tales of Thomas and his friends. Larger and chunkier than the originals, these books feature all the original text and illustrations and are redesigned in a way that makes every spread unique. Easier to hold and look at, this format is ideal for parents and children to share together.
Contained in this volume: "Thomas and the Guard", "Thomas goes Fishing", "Thomas, Terence and the Snow", "Thomas and Bertie". (Ages 3 and over) -- Philippa Reece
Reverend Wilbert Awry created Thomas the Tank Engine when his son Christopher became ill with measles. Christopher kept asking for more stories and Wilbert began writing them. The first of the railway series was published in 1945. Awdry wrote 26 Railway books in total before Christopher took over the series.
