The Boxcar Children Collection, Volume 4 by Gertrude Chandler Warner

Schoolhouse Mystery The Boxcar Children are spending the summer in a tiny, quiet New England fishing village. The little schoolhouse doesn't have a proper teacher, so the Aldens are teaching There's also a very old library where nobody ever goes -- nobody, that is, except for a mysterious stranger. For such a small town, Port Elizabeth has a lot of secrets Caboose Mystery When the Aldens spend the summer riding on a train, they get to live in a train car once again -- this time, they're staying in Caboose No. 777. The number is hard to forget, and indeed, the children meet people at each stop who seem to know it well. It turns out Caboose No. 777 has an unusual past -- one that comes with its very own mystery Houseboat Mystery The Aldens are spending the summer traveling on a houseboat But someone is watching them -- and the thing that he wants is somewhere on their boat He'll stop at nothing to get it and it's up to the Boxcar Children to figure out why

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!
