About this listen

This book is about the lives of Roberta, Peter, and Phyllis when their father goes away suddenly, and they are forced to move from a wealthy life in London to a simple place in the country. They fall in love with the Railway and all the folk that they meet there.

This timeless classic follows the adventures of the three children and their friends, such as the Old Gentlemen, as they come to love their new lives in the country and find happiness, friendship, and love around them.

Poor diction/elocution

Would you say that listening to this book was time well-spent? Why or why not?

Poor elocution (f/s/th sound) ruined it for me.

Who was your favorite character and why?

The book itself is brilliant .

What three words best describe Anna Parker-Naples’s performance?

Poor diction/elocution

Do you think The Railway Children needs a follow-up book? Why or why not?

Not really as it is a complete story.
