About this edition

When Father is suddenly taken away, Roberta, Peter, and Phyllis leave their comfortable London life for a little country cottage called Three Chimneys. There the great green railway becomes the centre of their days: the line that carries their daring rescues, their secret hopes, and at last the train that brings everything right.

First serialised in 1905 and published as a book in 1906, The Railway Children is E. Nesbit's best-loved story, warm, funny, and quietly brave, a classic that has never been out of print. It builds to one of the most famous and tender reunions in all of fiction, and it is a perfect family read-aloud for anyone who treasures The Secret Garden or Five Children and It.
