About the Author 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.

My favorite children's series in the 60's and they remain so today I completely enjoyed reading them again at 58 ! I can't wait for great grandchildren to share these adventures with once again hope I am still here! The stories aren't terribly outdated although the idea of no smart phones my need explaining! Enjoy they are wonderful stories.
