W. Awdry

    15 giugno 1911 – 21 marzo 1997

    Wilbert Vere Awdry, noto come Rev. W. Awdry, fu un ecclesiastico inglese, un appassionato di ferrovie e un autore per bambini. La sua eredità più duratura deriva dai personaggi che inventò per la prima volta nel 1943 per intrattenere suo figlio durante una malattia. Queste narrazioni si concentrano sulle vite e sulle avventure delle locomotive a vapore e dei loro amici, con lo stile di Awdry che spesso sottolinea lezioni morali e la magia della ferrovia. Le sue opere continuano ad incantare lettori in tutto il mondo con il loro fascino e il loro fascino senza tempo.
