This book was a great book. When Mike's house burns down the Alden children hear a rumor that Mike burned his own house down! But the Alden children know he didn't do it. The only reason why I didn't like it is because they only mentioned Snowball once, and I LOVE HORSES and all other animals.

One warm night four children stood in front of a bakery. No one knew them. No one where they had come from. Henry, Jessie, Violet, and Benny used to live alone in a boxcar. Now they have a home with their grandfather and are spending the summer out west on Mystery Ranch. The excitement begins when they meet their old friend, Mike. When Mike is blamed for starting a fire, the Boxcar Children know he's innocent. But can they discover who's really behind Mike's Mystery-before it's too late? I really enjoyed this book there is a lot of mystery in this book. I think that this book is definitely worth reading. "The four Alden children could hardly wait to get back to Mystery Ranch." That's probably the only thing about the book that I don't like. Which is those fake names of ranches or towns or something like that.

This, along with The Woodshed Mystery, was my favourite book (not just Boxcar Children, but books in general) for some time. It brings back to life the definite promise of adventure from the third book that slumbered through the fourth, and is one of the most well-laid-out and realistic of the series. At least I've always thought so. :)

We met Mike in "Surprise Island", and here he is back again in the little town that has sprung up around the Aldens' uranium mines. But when his house burns down suspiciously, a mystery follows. I think much of the reason I liked this so much was because the two youngest children, Benny and Mike, were really the main ones solving the mystery, with a bit of help here and there from the elder ones.

Definitely give your children this book. I know they will love it.

This book was incredably interesting but i do like the one titled "The Amusement Park Mystery" better.I belive someone other than herself wrote that story after the origional author passed away.I hope the new mystery writers keep on writing the box car mysteries cuz i wanna be a writer!!

This was a good book to read. I read this book recently. I have never lived on a houseboat but I have been in several boats. This book was completely different from the previous book in the series. The first book was good because I was in the age group when I had the book read to me by my school teacher.

Henry, Jessie, Violet, and Benny are taking a trip downriver in a houseboat! But along the way, many mysterious things happen. The Aldens have solved mysteries before, but can they sove this one? I would recommend this book for kids ages 5-9. They can follow the Aldens along for all of their mysteries, making friends, and giving help to everyone!

It really stunk. I've read other Boxcar Children books, but this stunk

The boxcar children are on another adventure. This time they go hiking. Benny suddenly finds a hole. Is it just a hole or is it a cave? Find out when you read this book.

The Boxcar children embark on another adventure only to run into trouble and then mystery atop a New England mountaintop. The mystery comes in the form of the whereabouts of a long-lost treasure that they learn about from an old Indian woman who says her grandfather hid it. The story takes a touching twist when the children meet a young Indian boy who also is looking for the treasure that he thinks belongs to him as the last member of the tribe to possess the secret goods. You'll be surprised by who eventually finds the treasure and what happens to each of the characters.

This mystery kept us guessing. We were worried about the Alden's new friend Miguel.

I liked this book because I enjoyed the part when they found a sword from a war. Somebody kept messing up the books the children organized. The kids worked for hours and hours cleaning up. The book made me want to keep reading!

I dont know what you mean

When the Alden's go to the Morgan's farm, there is a mysterious horse, and a fire, and some mysterious people. Will the Alden's get to the bottom of this mystery?

While spending their vacation on a farm learning how to milk cows, drive a tractor, and groom the horses, the Boxcar Children learn that someone is trying to steal a prized racehorse. When they find this horse locked up by itself. They wonder who this horse belongs to and why is it hidden.

The Box Car Children Mystery Horse was one of the best favorite stories I ever read. It inspired me to try to build my own box car. I went to my libary to see if I could learn more about The Box Car Children. The book was so good I read it 3 times. So, I tought The Box Car Children was a cool book.

Despite warnings and threats from a woman named Angela, the Boxcar Children set out on a canoe trip with Aunt Jane and become involved in a case involving a mysterious riddle and a stolen coin collection. Can they find the culprit before they get away?

When Henry, Jessie, Violet, & Benny go on a canoe trip with Aunt Jane, a valuable coin collection has been stolen. The kids have many clues-a riddle on a rock, a mysterious man, a suspicious woman, fake park rangers. Who stole Mr. Withington's coins? Sean Ryan, age 1

When the Aldens go riding to the site of their old boxcar they come across two men taking pictures. Soon they find out that they are taping for a new movie for Tate Radison. Tate has recently been having a bad luck jinx. Coming to Greenfield has made no difference. A mysterious lady following him around . . . a fire in an ice-cream parlor . . . a crash at dinner. What could this all mean? Follow the Aldens in this Hollywood caper!

The Boxcar Children used to live alone in a box car. Now theyhave a home with their grandfather, and they have become friends witha famous movie star!

They become friends and Tate gets weird letters in his mailbox. Is somebody watching Tate?

READ THE BOOK AND FIND OUT

This book was very boring the most of the time.if you buy this book it is a wast of your money when you could buy a better Boxcar Children books

This book is absolutely horrible. I wasted over a week on this book. I just kept thinking "The climax MUST be coming soon." but to tell you the truth, it never came! HORRIBLE book!

This is a great book for a mystery lover. If you are interested in lake monsters like me you will like this book. So you decide is there a monster or is it a hoax.

It all begins the day the Aldens arive at Lake Lucielle when their new friend,Nicole, tells them that a person who lives at Lucielle Lodge,Carl, has seen a monster in the lake. Then mysterious things start to happen like Monster tracks, low wailing sounds, even a monster-bitten canoe paddle! Is someone trying to scare visitors away or is their really a monster in Lake Luicelle? Read the book to find out!

What I like about The Boxcar Children series is: 1)the kids arenot some angels,they are normal kids who have conflicts anddisagreements 2)these kids are kind,caring,helpful,and they spend time together (despite their age differences) and stand up for each other - and most important - they enjoy it! 3)the stories are usually interesting,often with unexpected endings 4) the stories are not violent,which is too often the case with books for any age . That said,I didn't like this particular book very much,since the story is not as exciting and the mystery feels like it's happening almost by the way.The ending also felt a little flat and boring.So while I highly recommend most of the other books in the series,I do not recommend this one too much.

I like my book The Mystery Of The Queen's Jewels by Gertrude Chandler Warner because it is a mystery. A mystery book is more exciting and you ever know what happens next. Also the endings will always surprise you. In this book they are in London and someone is following them. There are four children in the book who solves the mysterious and at least one person who is sneaky and makes the story instering. The children work together as a team and they never exclude each other. I think it is very interisting how the boxcar children don't fight because usually brothers and sisters fight.This book is very instring because it makes you feel like you're in the book so you will want to read more. This book will encourage young children to like reading. I would encourage young readers to read this series.
