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.

The Boxcar Children is a very good series for kids to read. The Haunted Cabin Mystery book was about the Aldens going to visit old Cap Lambert, their grandfather's friend. The Aldens (children) noticed that something was off at the Cap Lambert's cabin. They decided to go deeper and unravel the myste......more

Goodreads review by Kim on December 24, 2023

This is the first book of the series that wasn't written by Gertrude Chandler Warner herself (although it's credited to her, she had already passed away). I was a little nervous about how the series would change, and they did go back to when the kids were younger (Henry was driving at the end of the......more
