juliemawesome 's review for:
The Railway Children
by E. Nesbit
This is the story of three siblings whose father goes away and they have to go live in the country with their mother. Their most promising source of entertainment is the nearby railway station. They make friends with the men who work there, wave at the passing trains, and have numerous adventures. They tend to save the day a fair bit.
The girls are treated equally to their brother by the author, and even by their parents really. Considering that this is Edwardian Britain. And even just considering similar contemporary books.
I found it an enjoyable read, even though I'm an adult (some of the time) and not too keen on trains.
