Even today, Gertrude Chandler Warner's classic Depression-era story of Henry, Jessie, Violet, and Benny Alden -- four hungry children who transform an abandoned boxcar into a home -- fascinates us because, regardless of age, we all long to be on our own. This 60th Anniversary Edition of Warner's classic sports a bright new cover and many new features but retains L. Kate Deal's original silhouettes.
When four orphaned siblings must flee their town in the middle of the night to avoid being split up, a boxcar in the woods becomes their new home. Thanks to their practical skills, a helpful stray dog, and the kindness of strangers, the brothers and sisters are able to build a new life together. Acclaimed voice actor Jim Weiss reads Gertrude Chandler Warner's 1924 novel with warmth and humor. Length: 2 hours on 2 CDs.
