Description
Discover our collectable Puffin Clothbound Classic edition of The Railway Children.
Puffin Clothbound Classics are stunning collectable hardback editions of some of the best-loved classics in the world — including this charming edition of The Railway Children.
Father is in trouble, and Roberta, Peter, and Phyllis have to leave their home in London and go into hiding in the countryside.
'Boys and girls are only little men and women. And we are much harder and hardier than they are.'
Each day, the children run down to the nearby railway station, where they say good morning to the Station Master and hello to Perks the Porter and wave at the passing London train, sending their love to Father.
Little do they know that the stranger on board the 9-15 a.m. train might be able to help track him down...

About the Author
Edith Nesbit was a mischievous child who grew up into an unconventional adult. With her husband, Hubert Bland, she was one of the founder members of the socialist Fabian Society; their household became a centre of the socialist and literary circles of the times. E. Nesbit turned late to children's writing. Her first children's book, The Treasure Seekers, was published in 1899 to great acclaim. Other books featuring the Bastable children followed, and a series of magical fantasy books, including Five Children and It also became very popular. The Railway Children was first published monthly in the London Magazine in 1905, and published as a book in 1906, which has been in print ever since.
