Thomas and The Tinners by Jill Paton Walsh
Thomas is just a boy compared with the other tin-miners and on his first day is glad when it's time to sit down and eat the pasty given him by Birdy at the ferry. This magical story is loosely linked to two previous Birdy stories and is again illustrated by Alan Marks.
