First published in 1924, "The Box-Car Children" is the beloved children's classic by American grade school teacher and author, Gertrude Chandler Warner. It is the story of four orphaned siblings, Henry, Jessie, Violet, and Benny, and their adventures living in an abandoned boxcar in the forest. The children are having fun while living in the boxcar at first, though several adults in the community are aware of their situation and are keeping an eye...

A mysterious woman, a dog barking every night at midnight, and a puzzling note in the sand all add up to a mysterious summer in a lighthouse.

While helping out their friends Dawn and Steve, the Aldens investigate the new donut shop that is stealing recipes from a longtime store in Greenfield.

When the Aldens spend the summer riding on a train, they get to live in a train car once again - this time, they're staying in Caboose No. 777. The number is hard to forget, and indeed, the children meet people at each stop who seem to know it well. It turns out Caboose No. 777 has an unusual past - one that comes with its very own mystery!

A family starts out on a one-day mountain climbing excursion that becomes very exciting. In fact, it becomes an adventure for the former "boxcar" family. They unearth some mysteries and have a fine time in the process.

The Alden family rents a houseboat to drift down the river, and encounters a mystery in the little towns along the river, involving a fast black car.

When strange mishaps occur while the Boxcar Children are helping to harvest honey at a farm owned by one of their grandfather's friends, the children set out to investigate whether someone is trying to ruin the harvest.

When the Alden siblings find a hidden time capsule, they uncover clues to a treasure hunt more than a century old.

While participating in the Great Greenfield Bake-Off, Jessie and Benny believe that someone is stirring up trouble and must expose the culprit before the contest is ruined.

While on a camping trip with their grandfather, the Alden children try to find out about the loud music and missing food that threatens to scare away other campers.
