So damn cute.

An immensely enjoy addition to The Railway Series with some nice lessons about respecting your elders and being patient. I loved the little engines.

Notes:
we read these books so many times
the classic series is the only way to enjoy Thomas

I like this book because it is all about Narrow Gauge Engines like Sir Handel, Skarloey, Rheneas and Peter Sam.

I am reading through these and then passing them along to my daughter for her to enjoy with my grandson. I used to watch the PBS shows (or listen to them) when my children were young, but I never read the books, so this is grandma finally indulging herself after all these years. Perhaps I will hang on to a few and read them with my grandson before passing them along! 😉 They are just such precious little stories.

I usually get annoyed when the episodes/books focus on these randos, but the story was quite good.

Absolute timeless classic just like the Talyllyn Railway on which the story is based.

You Can't go wrong with the Railway Series & this book is our introduction to The engines of The Skarloey Railway.

One of my favorite Railway Series books. The first time we're shown a part of Sodor that isn't the North Western Railway. Memorable characters too.
