Synopsis

The Aldens can’t believe that Greenfield’s town council wants to demolish the historic firehouse that has stood for over a hundred years. So they decide to try to fix up the building, which houses some valuable firefighting antiques. But someone keeps trying to sabotage their attempts. The Boxcar Children must find out who it is!

About The Author

The Boxcar Children series was created by Gertrude Chandler Warner, a teacher, when she realized that there were few, if any, books for children that were both easy and fun to read. She drew on her own experiences in writing the mysteries. As a child, she had spent hours watching trains near her home, and often dreamed about what it would be like to live in a caboose or freight car. In each story, she chose a special setting and introduced unpredictable, unusual or eccentric characters, to help highlight the Aldens’ independence and resourcefulness. Miss Warner lived in Putnam, Massachusetts until her death in 1979.

Goodreads review by Joseph on January 25, 2023

Book 56 of the Boxcar Children. Can the Alden children save the old firehouse? Who is undermining keeping it open and operational. With some elbow grease soon the firehouse is looking great but more stuff is missing. Lots of suspects and a bit of a surprise in the end. You’ll like this one. ​ Joseph......more
