Crime & mystery fiction (Children's&YA)

Read all year long with the Boxcar Children!

The Aldens were searching for a home-and found a life of adventure! Now Henry, Jessie, Violet, and Benny enjoy spending their summers exploring new places--including going to sleepaway camp on a small island for the very first time! Beloved by generations of families, this illustrated chapter book series is full of wholesome excitement, danger, and mystery for kids ages 7-10.

The Boxcar Children are going to summer camp and are looking forward to a week of new friends, exciting activities, and, most of all, the annual camp Olympics. As soon as camp begins, everything begins to go wrong for the Aldens-they lose their luggage, the camp flag disappears from Henry's cabin, and campers on the other team use one of Jessie's ideas to score points for themselves. Are some campers so desperate to win the Olympics that they are willing to cheat?

Gertrude Chandler Warner grew up in Putnam, Connecticut. She wrote The Boxcar Children because she had always dreamed about what it would be like to live in a caboose or a freight car-just as the Aldens do. When readers asked for more adventures, Warner wrote more books-a total of nineteen in all. After her death, other authors have continued to write stories about Henry, Jessie, Violet, and Benny Alden, and today The Boxcar Children series has more than one hundred books.
