'Tale of the Brave' book covers reveal more characters

Another two book covers concerning the Tale of the Brave special have been published by Random House.

The Little and Big Golden Book versions of the story show Thomas and Percy against quarry backdrops on both covers, with James on the latter.
The Big Golden Book however presents another fleeting appearance from the unknown Colombian Steam Locomotive on a bridge, while a small dark blue engine follows from behind, both hauling trucks.

Another unknown character, a steam shovel, is seen on top of a mountain, bearing a resemblance to Jack and the Pack's Ned.

Three more titles adapting the special are also due, with all formally divulged in late October.

The five Tale of the Brave books from Random House and Golden Books hit US book shelves on July 22nd 2014.

  2. Looking at the new covers I'm actually looking foreword for this special. The camera angle on both covers is good. The quarry maybe a new location or another part of blue mountain. All in all I hope it's good.

  3. If that's Ned, then HIT and/or Arc OVER-redesigned him!
    If not, then what is the purpose of Jack returning?
