Download or read book Dear Railway Children written by Gwynneth Knowlton Wallace and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2015-04-10 with total page 62 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Gwynneth Wallaces childhood was shaped by two interesting influences. Her childhood home was a small town on the western Canadian prairie. Danish farmers had founded a town in which the minister and the church were shaping, and Danish was the first language for most. The close-knit community enjoyed the beauty of the surrounding prairie wheat fields in summer and winter sports in cold weather. The second influence was the fact that her father was the railway station agent, and Gwynneth grew up in the station house. In her adult life, she wrote letters for her children, who had scattered, and also to her grandchildren, nieces, and nephews, as she recalled all the fascinating things that went on in a railway station. She called the letters her Dear Railway Children and shared with her young readers the adventures of her early life. Late she gathered copies of the many letters and had them printed as a book for children fascinated with her story.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Railway Children - E. Nesbit - The Railway Children is a children's book by Edith Nesbit, originally serialised in The London Magazine during 1905 and first published in book form in 1906. It has been adapted for the screen several times, of which the 1970 film version is the best known. The Oxford Dictionary of National Biography credits Oswald Barron, who had a deep affection for Nesbit, with having provided the plot. The story concerns a family who move to "Three Chimneys", a house near the railway, after the father, who works at the Foreign office, is imprisoned after being falsely accused of spying. The children befriend an Old Gentleman who regularly takes the 9:15 train near their home; he is eventually able to help prove their father's innocence, and the family is reunited. The family take care of a Russian exile, Mr Szczepansky, who came to England looking for his family (later located) and Jim, the grandson of the Old Gentleman, who suffers a broken leg in a tunnel.The theme of an innocent man being falsely imprisoned for espionage and finally vindicated might have been influenced by the Dreyfus Affair, which was a prominent worldwide news item a few years before the book was written. The Russian exile, persecuted by the Tsars for writing "a beautiful book about poor people and how to help them" and subsequently helped by the children, was most likely an amalgam of the real-life dissidents Sergius Stepniak and Peter Kropotkin who were both friends of the author.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Railway Children is Edith Nesbit’s most well-known and well-loved book for young readers. Since its first book publication in 1906, it has been made into movies, radio plays and television series several times, dramatised in the theatre, performed in actual railway stations, and even turned into a musical. It tells the story of three children: Roberta, Peter and Phyllis, who with their mother are forced to leave their comfortable suburban home and go to live in a small cottage in the country, after their father is taken away from them for what at first seem inexplicable reasons. They live there very quietly, not going to school, whilst their mother writes stories and poems to earn a small income. The children’s lives, however, are greatly enlivened by their proximity to a nearby railway line and station, in which they take great interest. They befriend the railway staff and have several adventures in which they demonstrate considerable initiative and courage. One unusual topic touched on by the book is the then-current Russia-Japan war, which divided opinion in England. Nesbit was clearly opposed to the actions of the Tsarist government of Russia, and she introduces into the story a Tolstoy-like Russian writer who has escaped from a prison camp in Siberia, to which he was condemned for publishing a book espousing his liberal views. This book is part of the Standard Ebooks project, which produces free public domain ebooks.
