The Great Bicycle Race Mystery by Gertrude Warner
The Aldens have joined a bicycle race Three days of riding and camping should be fun for everyone. Even Grandfather has joined the race. But right from the word Go things go wrong: misleading road signs by day and collapsing tents by night. Henry's first flat tire could be bad luck, but three flat tires point to foul play. But who is playing foul -- and why? The Boxcar Children are determined to solve the mystery before they cross the finish line.
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!
