a review

I liked this book well enough as a child. My mother read it and then I enjoyed the story. What I don't get is the name of the series. They only lived in a boxcar for the first book, so why are they still called the boxcar children? Will anyone ever let them live down the fact they had to make their home in a boxcar? Geeze.


the best of a good series

This was my favorite boxcar children, although I have since read about 50 more from the series. It's an exciting book. Many of my friends have liked it because of the humor, adventure, and mysteries. I think that you will like this heart-warming tale.

Wonderful, even for the little ones!

I read this book to my son as part of our homeschool curriculum for Kindergarten. Every night he has begged me to read one more chapter! He enjoyed listening to this book so much that he would rather pick up his toys than risk missing a night of The Boxcar Children! It was a huge motivator! I highly recommend it. My son has also informed me that when we finish (we read the final chapter tomorrow night), I am to put the book on the shelf and save it so he can read it himself when he's bigger!






A Book Review From a Spiritridge Third Grader

Do you want to read an amazing book? Well you should read the Box Car Children. There are four young children and they are really poor. They do not have food. Then they do not know what to do. Well, they run away from their house because they thought their dad did not like them. They found a boxcar. So they thought that the boxcar might take them somewhere, but it didn't pull them. The father was trying to find them but they did not want to be found.

What I like is that when they try to find food and on their way they found a hound. I like that part because I like dogs and I think they're cute.

I recommend this book to other readers who are in 2nd grade or 3rd grade because it is just right.
