Thomas & Friends: Gordon (Thomas Engine Adventures)

Rev. W. Awdry

The perfect introduction to Thomas the Tank Engine!Gordon the Big Engine always thought that he knew best. But when his whistle wouldn’t stop blowing one day, the other engines teased him. Gordon didn’t feel quite so grand, after that! Based on the classic tales from the Reverend W. Awdry, with a stunning, modern look. Thomas Engine Adventures 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. These fun, short stories come with a bonus spot-and-see activity at the end. Perfect for bedtime.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.

Sam and Soraya

Built by Sam & Soraya

In 2022 we welcomed our little twins into the world. Since then we have been building up our home library full of baby books to try and give our boys the best start.

While books with characters called Sam are found in bookstores and charity shops throughout the land, we struggled to find any books with Soraya, Jasper, or Xander.

This gave Soraya the idea to compile a list of books for new parents and then Sam decided to turn it in to a website.
