dc.description.abstract<h4> Gender inequality is one of the most important concerns of the world today, even in children&rsquo;s story books. The creation of &ldquo;biased&rdquo; or &ldquo;unbiased&rdquo; story books which blur or highlight gender differences help to form gender equality or inequality right from early childhood. Through a thorough examination of The Flying Train (2003), a story written in English for children between six and ten years of age, this paper intends to explain how Janaki Sooriyarachchi &ndash; the writer and illustrator of the story &ndash; attempts to validate both feminine and masculine voices and visions and balance gender issues both in the text and in the illustrations of the analysed narrative.</h4>
