Thomas the Tank Engine's newest adventure takes him and Diesel to the Sodor Cake Festival. When Thomas and Diesel race each other to see who gets there first, their cakes are ruined.

Train-loving boys and girls ages 2 to 5 will love this adorable Little Golden Book based on the Thomas & Friends animated series Thomas & Friends: All Engines Go(TM) on Netflix and Cartoon Network!

As the hero of his own adventure in the Thomas & Friends: All Engines Go(TM) series, Thomas will be center stage and we will see the world through his young eyes.

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.
