Children

The perfect introduction to Thomas the Tank Engine! Stafford is a quiet electric engine, but he wishes he could make lots of noise like the steam engines. One day, Thomas and Percy teach him their steam engine noises, and he learns some from Gordon and Henry too. But when he makes lots of noise at Farmer McColl's farm, things start to go wrong ...Thomas Friends is a great way to pass on the tradition of Thomas to early readers. Children aged 2 and up will love meeting classic characters such as Percy, James, Gordon, and Toby down on The Fat Controller's railway. Thomas has been teaching children lessons about life and friendship for over 70 years. He ranks alongside other beloved character such as Paddington Bear, Winnie-the-Pooh and Peter Rabbit as an essential part of our literary heritage.
