Set against the backdrop of early 20th-century England, the story follows siblings Roberta, Peter, and Phyllis as they adapt to life near a railway after their father is unjustly imprisoned. Their adventures include befriending Perks, the station porter, who may hold the key to their father's freedom. As the children navigate challenges, they embody themes of family, kindness, and altruism, ultimately helping others in need. Edith Nesbit's tale remains a cherished exploration of resilience and compassion.
