Check it out!  Old favorites are making a comeback.  In The Boxcar Children Beginning: The Aldens of Fair Meadow Farm, readers will discover what life was like for Henry, Jessie, Violet and Benny before they became orphans living in a boxcar.  Although fans of the series will know that hard times lay ahead for the Aldens, it is charming to read about their life as the “best family of all.”  A great choice for readers ages 7-10.
