The Test of Time

The Boxcar Children
Orphaned children, Henry, Jessie, Violet and Benny live in an old red boxcar. They find a home with their wonderful grandfather and thereafter enjoy all kinds of strange and exciting adventures.

CT's own, Gertrude Chandler Warner, a first-grade school teacher, originated the 'Boxcar' series in 1942. Warner wrote the first 19 books in the series; other writers have since added titles. Clean, inventive, and fun – it’s of little wonder why the pages of this series have been turning for over 65 years.

Find these and many more Boxcar Children Mysteries @ your library. For grades 2-5.
