Great books December 22, 2008
I loved these books as a kid, I'm hoping my son will enjoy these mysteries as well.
Great books for kids. December 16, 2008
These are great books for kids in a day when authors think kids are fair game for their progressive ideas.
The boxcar Children November 19, 2008
The Boxcar Children series is about 4 orphans living with their grandfather. My son loves these books and so do I. Not only are they fun to read, it's fun to try to solve the mystery that unwinds in each one. These books are perfect for 2-5th grade. Older children tend to think they are immature. They are lower level (k-3)AR books, book levels vary. They are a refreshing change from Beasts, fighting, and violence. They teach family values, compassion and thinking skills. It is best to start with Boxcar #1 and then they can be read in any order. Happy reading!
A Child's Reading Delight October 21, 2008
The Boxcar Children is a creative, beautiful story that captures the interest of the child in all of us. 5 orphans, surviving on their own, making friends of a few select adults.... how quickly these capture the imagination and take us to another world. Each book, complete in itself, nests among the many other stories. However, I do recommend reading the books in order, although not necessary.
I discovered the Boxcar Children series when I entered first grade. I started reading at about 3, and the "See Dick Run" was not holding my interest. Although I loved to read, there seemed to be little literature "out there" for imaginative young children - after all, at 6, after the Bobsy twins, there was was little else - or so my parents thought.
My first grade teacher, a very wise person, gave me the Boxcar Children to read while the other students learned "Dick & Jane." It was a great discovery. I devoured the books, returning again and again to her bookshelves for another Boxcar book.
When my nephew turned 5, I gave him the first 4 boxcar children books. And he was hooked. He now has the entire set. I am now purchasing these for my niece, who is 5.
I cannot think of a better gift to help a child discover the magic of reading. The boxcar children live forever in my memory, and I share them whenever I can with children wherever I meet them.
Trip down memory lane.. September 26, 2008
This was my favorite book growing up in the early fifties. So happy to see that the Boxcar Children are still loved!
