全民朗读丨伊迪斯·内斯比特丨铁路少年丨选段丨New Version

They were not railway children at the beginning. They lived with their father and mother in London. There were three of them. Roberta – she was always called Bobbie, and was the oldest. Next came Peter, who wanted to be an engineer when he grew up. And the youngest was Phyllis, who was always trying to be good.Mother was almost always at home, ready to play with the children, or to read to them. And she wrote stories, then read them to the children after tea.These three lucky children had everything that they needed. Pretty clothes, a warm house, and lots of toys. They also had a wonderful father who was never angry, and always ready to play a game.They were very happy. But they did not know how happy until their life in London was over, and they had to live a very different life indeed.The awful change came suddenly.
