One rich family were changed their life by their father's disappearance.
Three children Roberta、Peter、Phyllis and their mother began to start live near railway.
Children meet many people and experience many things there.

It is interesting that children do things one after the other.
But I was surprised that the truth of their father's disappearance.
I couldn't expect it. ( )

The three children and their parents had lived in the city.
But one day the father went away.
So the children and their mother moved to a small town near the railway.
The children enjoyed the life there, but where is their father?
I enjoyed this story because the children look so happy to live near the railway.
And they tried to find their father.
But I thought that the content about an accident is extra. ( )
