Publisher's summary

Henry, Jessie, Violet, and Benny didn't think the old trunk in their house held anything interesting. But an unusual statue they find inside leads them to the Reddimus Society, a secret guild dedicated to returning lost treasures to where they belong.

Now the Aldens must help their new friends by traveling across the country with the statue and six mysterious boxes! Can the Boxcar Children keep these seven treasures out of the wrong hands?

Thank you for the story

Narrator went overboard with the characters voices, but you got used to it. Great story.

AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

WOW…… all is can say is wow…. Never NEVER have i ever listen to an audio book with this depth this emotion i have no words (except these words I’m typing) if i had to listen to one audio book for the rest of my life on repeat i would choose this one (or Percy Jackson). When i first listen to this book after listening to one chapter ONE chapter i knew i just knew i had to show this to anyone and everyone i would ever meet. When i recommended this audiobook to people they would thank me profusely for making their life way better. Henry, Jessie, Violet and Benny are such amazing, creative and incredibly smart children. I have listened to this audiobook 782 times and i plan to make it to 1000 let me tell you again i have listened to this audiobook 728 times and NEVER got bored or uninterested in the story well I’m guessing by now you have decided to listen to this audiobook and you better have. I am making it my LIFES mission to share this with everyone i ever meet so please please listen to this and find your life way better. JK seriously this book is rly good and I found it very interesting i would definitely recommend. Happy listening😁😁😁😁😁

Great adventure story. The kids loved it.

I have a 1st grade boy and 3rd grade girl. We listened to this while driving and the kids didn't want to get out of the car until it was over.

Bed Time favorite

The box car children book on audio is perfect for in the car or quite time before bed. My two children love these book and this one was no exception, they are never wanting to turn it off when its playing. Great mystery for young children.
