Classic. Might be a bit charlatan to say but I probably prefer the film/play (I've seen it done with real trains, uhmazing) but that might just be sentimental. Oh my daddy, my daddy <3

I'm honestly not sure if I read this as a child or not. Parts were vaguely familiar, but that just might be similarities within the genre. But it's a sweet story of three siblings in the early 20th century.
I was, however, put off by the narration by Renee Raudman. She was fine with just reading the story, but she spoke the dialogue in a terrible British accent. Sometimes it was just awkward, and others it rambled into Cockney and Australian! You'd think the publisher would select a narrator who could speak with a REAL British accent!
