Thomas & Friends: The Runaway Pumpkins

Introducing a new autumn adventure from Thomas & Friends(TM) Little Golden Book! On the Island of Sodor, the fall pumpkin crop has gone missing in this all-new Thomas & Friends(TM) Little Golden Book! Children aged 4 to 7 who love trains will be left wondering how the Pumpkin Festival will carry on without them. With nothing to judge, what will happen to the pumpkin-carving contest? But have no fear--Thomas the Tank Engine is ready to assist his friends Percy, Edward, Emily, and Henry in getting the festivities back on track! It's the ideal way to celebrate the fall season and Halloween.

In the early 1940s, a devoted father created a small blue wooden train engine for his son, Christopher. The stories that the father, the Reverend W Awdry, invented to go along with the fantastic toy were first published in 1945 and formed the foundation for the Railway Series, a collection of books about Thomas the Tank Engine and his friends--and the remainder is history. Thomas & Friends now comprise a large extended family of engines and others on the Island of Sodor. They appear not only in books, but also in television shows and movies, as well as a wide range of beautifully crafted toys. The adventures of Thomas and his friends, which always revolve around friendship in the end, have brought joy to generations of children who love trains for over 70 years and will continue to do so for many generations to come.
