The Black Pearl Mystery by Gertrude Chandler Warner
The Boxcar Children and their grandfather are visiting Hawaii. They help pick pineapples on their cousin Mary's plantation, go snorkeling, and visit a volcano. But they can't figure out why no one will tell them the legend of the black pearl. And who took the diving maps that belonged to cousin Mary's husband? It looks as if the Aldens have another mystery on their hands
American author Gertrude Chandler Warner (1890-1979) wrote several stories for children, and her 1924 book, The Box-Car Children, was so successful that she published 18 sequels. The series' popularity has continued to grow: there are currently 150 other books, written by many authors, as well as two animated films. Warner was also a school teacher who read the original story to her classes and rewrote it many times to make sure that it would be both engaging and easy to read. She noted that the book raised a storm of protest from librarians who thought the children were having too good a time without any parental control! That is exactly why children like it!
