It's a quick `good morning Percy' and Thomas is off in this two-part story about his busy day. In the first part of the boardbook ("On the track...") Thomas scurries about with his coaches, Annie and Clarabel, until it is time to go to the quarry where he helps Mavis and Toby with some Troublesome Trucks.

In the second book ("There and back again") Thomas is off to the mountains and down to the harbor hauling freight. Along the way he sees Bertie and Cranky (who is in the background). Then, errands done, we are told Thomas is off to get a bath before going to bed. The last two pages show James and Thomas falling asleep in the sheds.

Though the book is oddly divided into two different stories (you have to turn the book over to continue with the second book) it only slows down the read slightly. With colorful, friendly pictures this a good choice for younger Thomas enthusiasts (baby to 2½ years of age).

Note: for slightly older Thomas fans the "Railway Series Boxed Set (Railway)" collection is nice. Railway Series Boxed Set

This is a very nice, short book for any Thomas enthusiast. My 2 year old grandson and my 3 year old granddaughter both enjoy it.

My three year old picks this one out a lot. Lays his head on my lap and dreams
