Tento autor, známy ako Rev. W. Awdry, bol anglický duchovný a nadšenec do železníc, ktorý stvoril postavy z úspešnej knižnej série o železnici. Postavy, ktoré mu neskôr zaistili slávu, a prvé príbehy s nimi spojené, vymyslel v roku 1943, aby zabavil svojho syna počas jeho choroby. Autorova tvorba sa sústredí na svieže a nápadité príbehy s výraznými postavami, ktoré oslovujú mladých čitateľov. Jeho štýl rozprávania je jednoduchý, ale pútavý, a zanechal nezmazateľnú stopu v detskej literatúre.
