The Boxcar Children: Beginning by Patricia MacLachlan
What was life like for Henry, Jessie, Violet, and Benny before they became the Boxcar Children? This prequel provides a glimpse into the Alden children's previous life when they lived with their parents on Fair Meadow Farm. Times were hard, but the Aldens still opened their home to a family seeking shelter in a winter storm. Little did the children know that their lives would be changed forever... By Patricia MacLachlan. ~ Lisa
Good reading for children of all ages! This timeless collection has thankfully been left unaltered. These are the originals written by Gertrude Chandler Warner. They are chock-full of good, wholesome, old-fashioned values and the heroes are children who are adventurous, diligent, helpful, hardworking, and polite. Our children have been captivated by this series.
