 Great for Thomas lovers July 11, 2008
I bought this book without "research". After I received the book, I found there is little pictures in the book. So I thought my 3-year-old will not be interested since he cannot read. Surprisingly, my son loves it. He asked me to read it as his bed time story. He seems to be able to tell which story he wants me to read from just 1 or 2 pictures.
Thomas The Tank Engine Rocks June 30, 2008
I bought this to replace the original lost in a home fire. My grandsons love it. We wear miner flashlights at night on our heads and read the stories in the dark. A great read.
Big Red is worth it! June 4, 2008
In our home, we call this, Big Red. (Under dust jacket, it's red) It is held together with tape to help its broken spine. Good sign for a book. My boy loves it, need I say more?
 Not Rev. Awdrey's Stories April 29, 2008
4 out of 4 found this review helpful
These are not the railway series stories. They have been re-written to go with the 'Thomas & Friends' franchise. Rev. Awdrey's introductory notes have been rewritten, too.
We bought this book to replace ours when it wore out from being read so often, but we will have to return it, since it is not the book it claims to be. The Fat Director/Fat Controller has been replaced by 'Sir Toppam Hat' and the trucks are now freight cars.
If you are looking for 'Thomas & Friends' stories, then this will probably be fine for you, but if you wanted to read to your children the stories that Rev. Awdrey wrote, be aware that these are not it. You can find them here:Thomas the Tank Engine: The Complete Collection (Railway Series)
Boring March 5, 2008

This book is collecting dust on our bookshelf. It's long drawn out and BORING! I have tried to get my children to sit down to read this and it's just missing something.
