The Mystery of the Pirate's Map by Gertrude Chandler Warner
While on the beach at a seaside resort, Benny finds a bottle with a tattered piece of paper inside. When the Aldens find out that it's part of a map that leads to a pirate's riches, they prepare to search for the buried gold. But the Aldens aren't the only ones looking for the hidden fortune. Will they be the first to solve the mystery of the pirate's map? Aye, mateys, this might be the Boxcar Children's biggest adventure yet.
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!
