Meet the Boxcar Children

Boxcar Children Early Reader (Step into Reading)

De: Gertrude Chandler Warner

The Alden children were searching for a home--and found a life of adventure! Beloved by generations of families, the first book in the Boxcar Children series--adapted into this Step 2 leveled reader--is full of wholesome fun, perfect for children who are learning to read simple sentences.

Henry, Jessie, Violet, and Benny are brothers and sisters. They're orphans too, and the only way they can stay together is to make it on their own. When the children find an abandoned boxcar in the woods, they decide to call it home—and become the Boxcar Children!

Step 2 Readers use basic vocabulary and short sentences to tell simple stories. For children who recognize familiar words and can sound out new words with help.

"Though these homages to ­Warner’s old stories may appeal to the parents of new readers more than the readers themselves, the books still serve as fun mysteries on a ­beginner reading level." —School Library Journal
