The Boxcar Children take a trip to Washington, D.C, and visit lots of interesting places, like the Capitol Building, the Washington Monument, and the Air and Space Museum. But when things start disappearing from their hotel, and they realize they are being followed, the children know there’s a mystery in the capitol…and it’s up to them to solve it!
GERTRUDE CHANDLER WARNER was born in 1890 in Putnam, Connecticut, where she later taught school. She wrote The Boxcar Children because she had often imagined how delightful it would be to live in a caboose or freight car. Encouraged by the book’s success, she went on to write eighteen more stories about the Alden children.
