Boxcar Joe
When you think of the scariest person you have ever met, who comes to your mind?
When you lay in bed at night and cannot sleep because you are scared, who or what are you afraid of?

This is a story of one railroad town in the heart of Michigan. It tells of life and growing up with the railroad in the 1950s. Share in the tales of a tight knit group of young neighborhood friends who spend hours of growing-up years trying to figure out just why a familiar character in town is so mysterious and downright scary.
It is the story of a man and the town that he changed just by being who he was: A loner who longed to be part of something bigger than himself.

This is the story of a sorry soul who seemed to have nothing much to offer, yet ended up offering everything to some.

This is the story of Boxcar Joe. Read it and remember.

About the Author

Teresa Lee Schanski has been an educator of young children for 29 years.
Writing has been a passion throughout her life.
Boxcar Joe is her first published children’s chapter book.
As a former teacher of reading and writing, it is a thrill to have created a book that hundreds of former students can read and enjoy.
Teresa lives with her husband in Perry, MI. Spending time with her family, which now includes nine grandchildren, is her greatest joy.
Teresa believes:
“Inspiration for writing comes from inside and outside of a person.”
“Living in the country and enjoying the beauty of Michigan is part of my inspiration, but the greatest measure of my inspiration comes from life experiences.”
“Write what you know. Write what you live. Write what you love: Mostly, just write.”
