The Railway Children Customer Reviews

:

• 5.0 out of 5 stars from Roger Brunyate -- Nothing if Not Strictly Truthful : — And something wonderful did happen exactly four days after she had said this. ( Reviewed in the United States on July 8, 2016 )
• 5.0 out of 5 stars from Kindle Customer -- Heartwarming : When a family must step away from the life they've always known, for circumstances out of their control, they try to make the best of it. Bobbie, Peter, and Phyllis have grown up affluent, raised by parents who make time for them and servants who feel like family. One day all of that changes. After a late night visit from strange men, their father goes away and soon they do as well. Moving with their mother to the country, they find a whole new perspective on life. ( Reviewed in the United States on September 27, 2018 )
• 3.0 out of 5 stars from museum -- No illustrations : I was buying this for a gift and luckily had it sent to my home first. There were no illustrations, other than the cover. The type was small and the pages formatted in a way that looked tall and narrow. Not inviting to a child. More like a college textbook. Very disappointing. ( Reviewed in the United States on September 27, 2018 )
• 5.0 out of 5 stars from James Moffett -- Beautifully Written Children's Book from 1906 : I first came across the Railway Children while at boarding school when I watched one of the several films made of the book written, by Edith Nesbit and first published in 1906. The story of three children and their mother living in a small, quaint farm cottage in the almost idyllic English countryside near a railway track conjured up images of a forgotten better time we all dream of and Nesbit's writing and understanding of the period makes this a successful read. I had never read the book until now, many years on, however as in the case of many books adapted to the screen, there was no disconnect between the two and my memories of the movie I loved, were awakened by the story in the book. Yes, it is worth reading and also for teens who are keen to read a good book from long ago. ( Reviewed in the United States on December 10, 2019 )
• 2.0 out of 5 stars from sheryl -- Not quite what I expected : Obviously this book is very much of it's time. It's charming, innocent, extremely sexist and I say, frightfully unrealistic. I expected the jeopardy to be much less mild and the emotions to be less monotone. It was disjointed. Each chapter could almost have been a short story and the overarching plot just wasn't strong enough to hold it all together, even for a children's book. ( Reviewed in the United Kingdom on September 11, 2019 )
• 5.0 out of 5 stars from Denise Howard -- A Charming Story : This book is a firm favourite of mine in my childhood and I have read it as an adult also. It never ceases to charm and make me smile. Yes you can see it is dated but that does not spoil the book and you do fall in love with the children, just like the characters fall in love with them in the book. Considering it is free I truly recommend to read to children or encourage book-worm children to read it too. Also there is the 1970 film with Jennifer Agutter and Bernard Cribbins and there is the 2000 film remade to take a look out for some family viewing. ( Reviewed in the United Kingdom on August 11, 2018 )
• 5.0 out of 5 stars from sugarbelle -- A wonderful nostalgic book : The film was the first film I was taken to see as a child by my mother. I have seen it a few times since and it is one of my favourites. I was therefore unsure whether to read the book in case it was a let down but I needn't have worried. It is a wonderful nostalgic read, very well written with lovely characters that I fell in love with. Full of charm and a delight. ( Reviewed in the United Kingdom on September 22, 2019 )
• 5.0 out of 5 stars from Sara McCREA -- The Railway Children by Nesbitt : I bought this to re-read something I loved as a child, and it still gave me great pleasure ~ a classic! A heart-rending story of a family beset with problems but striving to overcome them, and coping in the end. The film is excellent of course, but cannot quite include all that the book reveals, so this excellent read is a necessity. ( Reviewed in the United Kingdom on December 26, 2020 )
• 5.0 out of 5 stars from epitome -- written from the perspective of the children, undergoing a dramatic change in their lives. : These children's lives are turned upside down by the imprisonment of their father, and their ensuing comparative poverty. Each child responds differently but each eventually benefits from enduring this trial on their faith in their father, and establishing a lifestyle very different from their former status. It's a "feel good" tale, with a happy ending, set in the time period of steam trains, tutors, and no forensics to assist in criminal trials. ( Reviewed in the United Kingdom on March 25, 2021 )
