I thought they were okay, but a little rigged. I only liked the original fifteen or whatever it was.

i dont like the ones that come later,either. i found it is because
miss gertrude warner died, but her publisher kept writing them.

They were, we eh. I like the 1st few, but, then the get pretty boring, unlike Animorphs. I have the 50 somthingth book from a grandmother and it was super boring!!! I stopped on the 7th page. I don't recommened the series of books for anybody in 4th grade or older. They are for younger kids, I think.

The Boxcar Children are VERY repetitive!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I wonder why they are always on vacation and barely go to school?
However the first book was the best and the mystery plots where pretty good.

I really liked that they went into a bakery and they ran away and found a box car. That was because the bakery owners wanted to give them to a foster home or their grandfather. They thought that their grandfather was mean. I really liked this book. I have read lots more in this series.
