The Boxcar Children

[vermicious knid]

I loved these books. The first one with all the kids living in a boxcar was the best. I loved the idea of kids taking care of themselves, buying bread and milk to feed themselves, and visiting the city dump for household items. Gertrude Chandler Warner wrote nineteen of these books from 1942 to 1976. Then in 1991, after her death, they started releasing new stories by uncredited authors. I read some of these also. But I didn't know they were still making them! There are 105 of them now.
