An early edition of the beloved classic.

Since The Boxcar Children® series began in 1942, the adventures of the Alden family have captivated generations of readers. But years before she began working on the series of beloved children's books that remain widely read today, Gertrude Chandler Warner shared a very different version of her best-known tale.

Now, Albert Whitman & Company, the publisher of The Boxcar Children® series, presents this heritage edition of Warner's 1924 novel The Box-Car Children.
