Loading... The Boxcar Children (1942)by Gertrude Chandler Warner
3.2 This is the story of four orphaned siblings looking for their grandfather. In the meantime, they have made a home in a boxcar.The book is full of examples of hard work, love, and forgiveness. It is a heartwarming story that students will enjoy. I forgot how much I liked this book as a kid. I often used to play house in pine trees with my friend, so the idea of setting up house in the woods independent from adults really appealed to me back then. There's not much of a plot in this book, but the concept is fun. Good for about 4th grade to teach the difference between wants and needs I actually only like the first book, because I lose interest after they moved out of the box car. LOL
An impeccable production of a compelling story...
