Publishers of the popular series of children’s storybooks, Victoria’s Torton Tales. Written by Wendy Wakelin and beautifully illustrated, our series follows the countryside adventures of Victoria the steam traction engine and her friends.

What makes Victoria’s Torton Tales unique for schools is that every character is based on a real-life heritage steam engine, with Victoria herself dating back to 1886! Aimed at Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) and Key Stage 1 (ages 3–9), our books provide an engaging, screen-free way to encourage a lifelong love of reading.

Beyond literacy, our stories and accompanying activity books offer fantastic cross-curricular learning opportunities. They naturally introduce young learners to primary STEM concepts (including diagrams of how steam engines work) and British industrial history, all while reinforcing positive PSHE themes like friendship, problem-solving, and helping others. We offer storybooks, colouring/activity books, and discounted bundles that make perfect additions to school libraries, classroom reading corners, and end-of-term rewards.
