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 June 05, 2023

Book 78 of the Boxcar Children. Leave it to the Alden children to take a simple computer game and find wrongdoing. So, it is a little deeper than just the computer game. But still an excellent mystery that leads us on a chase to not only figure out who the bad guy is but what exactly they are up to.......more

This book was pretty good. The reasons I didn't give it 5 stars: 1. I didn't like the "spells" at the beginning. 2. I was a bit confused as to when Soo Lee was there and when she wasn't. Other than that, this book was very enjoyable.......more
