The Aldens are helping Grandfather prepare for Greenfield’s Winter Festival by cleaning a statue of a Revolutionary War hero in the town square. When Violet finds a mysterious message in a photograph of the statue, the Boxcar Children have to find out what it means for the statue–and the festival.
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.
