Thomas the Tank Engine started life as a character in a bedtime story created by the Reverend Wilbert Awdry for his son Christopher. Other railway engines, such as Edward, Gordon and Henry, also featured in the stories. Today Thomas and his friends are known and loved by millions all over the world; the original Railway Series books continue to fascinate children of all ages.
A beautifully produced hardcover with gloss laminate dust jacket and full-colour illustrations at remarkable value. With the Railway Series no longer in print, this is the only available format of the original stories about Thomas and his Friends . . .
