Résumé

ONE OF THE MOST INFLUENTIAL WRITERS TO HAVE EVER LIVED. NOW A SUCCESSFUL FILM . 'This much-loved classic is above all a celebration of kindness and hope' KIRAN MILLWOOD HARGRAVE'My all-time favourite classic children's author' JACQUELINE WILSON 'Edith Nesbit was endlessly surprising and inventive' FRANK COTTRELL-BOYCEWhen their father is suddenly taken away, the children's lives change overnight. Unable to afford their London home, the family must move to a small cottage in the Yorkshire countryside.
Hiding their sadness from their mother, Roberta, Peter and Phyllis roam the fields all day. Every morning they can be seen waving as the morning train roars past, imagining that it will can carry their love to their father, wherever he may be. The trio become a familiar sight and their bravery and quick-thinking avert a railway disaster. There is a kind old gentleman passenger who never fails to wave back - little do the children realise how much his friendship will mean to them, especially in solving the mystery to their father's disappearance.

À propos des auteurs

Edith Nesbit (1858-1924) is perhaps most famous for writing The Railway Children and Five Children and It, but she was extremely prolific and wrote or collaborated on more than sixty children's books. Nesbit is today recognised as one of the most influential and innovative children's writers that ever lived, and is cited as an inspiration by many contemporary authors, including J. K. Rowling, Neil Gaiman, Jacqueline Wilson, Kate Saunders and Frank Cottrell-Boyce.
Even C. S. Lewis acknowledged the debt his Narnia series owed to her work-particularly the Bastable and Psammead trilogies.
