Thomas & Friends: Team Up With Thomas

Everyone’s favorite true blue engine, Thomas, is back with friends old and new in four fun adventures on the Island of Sodor in Thomas & Friends: Team Up With Thomas. This DVD is enhanced with CG animation and a live-action host, Mr. Arkwright, who welcomes viewers with a smile and a fun project for Lady Hatt’s grandchildren. Thomas, Edward, Toby, James and the rest of the engines introduce young engineers to Hank, a big, strong, new engine and Flora, a lovely new lady steam engine. Together, they take us along on their tasks around the island. Be careful: trouble may lie around the next bend. But one thing’s for certain – you’ll always come home with a brand new friend!

Just when things seem to be rolling along, will Ol’ Wheezy make a wobbly mess of Thomas’ special delivery? Hold on for exciting surprises waiting to be delivered just for you!

MY THOUGHTS

I received the Thomas & Friends: Full Steam Ahead 3-DVD set. As you may recall, Thomas is my son’s favorite show and character. He absolutely went bonkers when he saw the train that came with the set. he collects the trains, so he’s always happy to get a new one. The episodes are a good mixture, all of them encouraging friendship, teamwork, cooperation, and trying your best. I love that Thomas episodes always have a moral while still delivering a fun story that children will enjoy and relate to. This set would be a great addition to the collection of all fans of Thomas & Friends, new or old. Plus if your little one collects the trains like mine does it’s well worth it.
