The Boxcar Children Series is a book about orphaned kids named Henry, Jessie, Violet, and Benny Alden. This book is by Gertrude Chandler Warner. These 4 orphaned kids find a boxcar and turn it into their home. In this series they have adventures, and these books are always interesting to read. They fear their uncle who did not like their parent's marriage but yet is surprised to find out he is a kind and caring person. He moves their boxcar to his backyard. I rate this book 5/5 and recommend it to grades kindergarten to sixth grade.
