Synopsis
Six card railway tickets from the earliest days of Tail's End station are stolen. Jack the Station Cat and his friend Mr J Toddington Ramsbottom are in despair. Will Jack find the tickets? Do Harri P and Overton, the otters, know anything? And what has Henry the Van got to do with it?
Review
These are such charming books they are hard to resist! Here Jack has called on his otter friends to help him find the stolen tickets from Tail's End Station.
Alan Cliff has done a very difficult thing and made each story quite unique and interesting, encorporating local animals and different stations. They are lovely for children to read and parents I'm sure will enjoy them too.
I like the fact that pretty much all the places can be visited - and I remember in 2006 visiting the Slate Mine Museum in Wales - it is quite fascinating and I highly recommend a visit there.
Again a great story with questions at the back. All illustrations are by Nigel Cliff.
