An inspiring tale from Michael Morpurgo and Michael Foreman celebrating the world's most iconic train, Flying Scotsman, and its greatest fan, a young girl named Iris. Iris knows everything there is to know about Flying Scotsman. Her dad is the famous train's driver, and nothing makes her prouder than seeing him at work. But each time Flying Scotsman pulls away, Iris wishes more than anything that she could be with her dad in the driver's cab. Then again, who's to stop her... Our cheeky train-enthusiast protagonist hops aboard Flying Scotsman as it travels from London to Edinburgh, breaking the speed record for steam locomotives on its way! And when Iris grows up, she's one of the first women to work on the railways during the Second World War. But will Iris ever achieve her dream of riding in the driver's cab of the greatest train in the world, like her dad? This charming story captures the adventurous spirit of the golden age of steam travel, while paying tribute to the amazing workers who drove the trains and kept the railways running. Warmly written and joyously illustrated, this book is the ultimate celebration of the great Flying Scotsman.
