Book summary
Roberta, Peter, and Phyllis, three children, see their lives overturned when their father suddenly disappears. Forced to leave their comfortable life, they move to the countryside near a railway that becomes the center of their adventures. Curious and close‑knit, they form bonds with local residents and face various unexpected situations. Through their experiences, they learn resilience, mutual aid, and courage. The author offers a touching, vivid story about childhood, family, and adapting to hardship.
