E. Nesbit's novel The Railway Children narrates the story of Roberta, Phyllis and Peter after their mother moves them and their father disappears to a poor cottage next to the railway. The children's infatuation with the trains diverges from their worries regarding their father's absence. The children's affection for their father, their kindness to the town's residents, and the fact that despite their wealth, they do not hold a grudge against the impoverished are the story's primary positive messages. It is a heartwarming tale that captures the essence of childhood, inspiring readers of all ages with its enduring charm
