{"product_id":"engines-around-the-world","title":"Engines around the world","description":"An all-new Thomas the Tank Engine storybook about Thomas and all his engine friends from around the world! Includes over 50 stickers!  Based on the popular Nick Jr. series, train-loving boys and girls ages 3 to 7 will be thrilled to meet Thomas the Tank Engine and all his friends from around the world in this Pictureback, which features beautiful full-color illustrations and more than 50 bonus stickers!  In the early 1940s, a loving father crafted a small blue wooden train engine for his son, Christopher. The stories that this father, the Reverend W Awdry, made up to accompany the wonderful toy were first published in 1945 and became the basis for the Railway Series, a collection of books about Thomas the Tank Engine and his friends--and the rest is history. Thomas \u0026amp; Friends(TM) are now a big extended family of engines and others on the Island of Sodor. They appear not only in books but also in television shows and movies, and as a wide variety of beautifully made toys. The adventures of Thomas and his friends, which are always, ultimately, about friendship have delighted generations of train-loving boys and girls for more than 70 years and will continue to do so for generations to come. \u003cp hidden=\"hidden\"\u003eWebster, Christy\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp hidden=\"hidden\"\u003e9781984848376\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Random House","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49273142313193,"sku":"1389KUX","price":4.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0767\/5363\/3513\/files\/index_bd8701ee-b4f9-4500-820a-1ca1501dedc4.jpg?v=1761835103","url":"https:\/\/follett-playground-b2b.myshopify.com\/products\/engines-around-the-world","provider":"Follett Playground B2B","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
