    Boxcar Children - great story

    The Boxcar Children was my very favorite story during my youth. Now that I have grandchildren of my own, I introduced the story of my eldest grand daughter, who at that time was 4 years of age. Now, she is 5 1/2 and still wants me to read the book to her. I read it off my Kindle - no colored illustrations - just a great story line that feeds the imagination. This summer, I purchased, Zetta, her own hard copy. She is starting to read and now has the book at her fingertips. The Boxcar Children is now a third generation favorite in our family!

  • A very good book. light enough for kids to hold without getting too heavy

    In the past I have purchased The Boxcar Children books for my grandchildren. And now I am going to start purchasing them for my Great Grandchildren. Kids love to listen to them and love to read them. Clean, healthy stories. I highly recommend them.

  • Cover matched ad

    I specifically purchase this Boxcar Children because I like the old cover (which looks friendly and happy) better than the new cover (which looks scary, even terrifying). I was pleased that the cover matched the description in the ad. My kids (age 5 and 6) now are excited to read Boxcar Children!

  • My all time favorite childhood book!

    my FAVORITE childhood book. I bought it for my book-worm grand daughter because she can't have my old copy (yet). This book spawned dozens of daydreams for me, and I loved looking at the world through a box car. I am not a fan of the series that follow, but I love love love the original This is a paperback copy but well worth the money and compels me to read it again before I give it away!

  • The boxcar children box #1

    The Boxcar Children series is about 4 orphans living with their grandfather. My son loves these books and so do I. Not only are they fun to read, it's fun to try to solve the mystery that unwinds in each one. These books are perfect for 2-5th grade. Older children tend to think they are immature. They are lower level (k-3)AR books, This book is level 3.9 for anyone involved in the Renaissance Reading program. Children earn 2 points when they score 100% on the AR test. They are a refreshing change from fighting and violence, teaching family values, compassion and thinking skills. It is best to start with box #1 and then they can be read in any order. Happy reading!
