1.0 out of 5 stars How I hate TTTE, May 1, 2000
By 
saliero (NSW Australia) - See all my reviews
This review is from: PERCY THE SMALL ENGINE TAKES T (Little Pops) (Hardcover)
I ate Thomas the Tank ngine, but any junior fans will like this pop-up book.

The morality is Victorian - the censorious and vindictive Fat Controller is an example of middle-class Victorian values. The engines (who do all the work) have to obediently kowtow to this toff. The worst of English class values. Outdated. I used to change the stories when I read these aloud. Thank goodness by the time most kids are independent readers they have grown out of Thomas!
