Hop on board with Thomas as he learns the importance of listening to others in this lionhearted collection of tales from the tracks.

Episodes include;
The Lion of Sodor
Thomas and the Pigs
Time for a Story
Extra: Thomas and the Runaway Kite

  3. If they added a bit extra to the UK ones like they do for Aus, then they may be considered value for money...

    I picked up "Splish Splash Splosh!" cheap at the Boxing Day sales and I already had "Merry Winter Wish" so I'll be looking for this next week to complete the set, at least for now...
