Synopsis

About The Author

The Boxcar Children Series was created by Gertrude Chandler Warner, a teacher, when she realized that there were few, if any, books for children that were both easy and fun to read. She drew on her own experiences in writing the mysteries. As a child, she had spent hours watching trains near her home, and often dreamed about what it would be like to live in a caboose or freight car. In each story, she chose a special setting and introduced unpredictable, unusual or eccentric characters, to help highlight the Aldens’ independence and resourcefulness. Miss Warner lived in Putnam, Massachusetts until her death in 1979.

I'm glad as a child my suspension of disbelief bought into this. Still, it's sweet.......more

Goodreads review by Sarah on June 27, 2008

As with my coat hall closet search for Narnia spurred by reading The Lion, The Witch, and The Wardrobe I repeatedly felt the bedroom wall for a "mystery" like that encountered by the Alden children. Alas! It was not to be. Nevertheless, this volume was a particular favorite as it evoked much trepida......more

Goodreads review by Kara on June 30, 2024

I actually think this one is my favorite in the series so far! I really, really enjoyed it! The storyline involves a scavenger hunt, which is always exciting. It's fun to play along and try to crack the riddles as the story progresses. It was also quite educational (at least the last 2 chapters). It......more
