Synopsis

The Alden children were searching for a home – and found a life of adventure! Beloved by generations of families, the second book in the Boxcar Children series—adapted into this Step 2 leveled reader—is full of wholesome fun, perfect for children who are learning to read simple sentences.

The Aldens spend the summer on Grandfather's island! Joe, the island's friendly handyman, helps them with anything they need, but as the children continue to explore their summer home, they realize there is more to the island―and to their new friend―than meets the eye. Adapted from Gertrude Chandler Warner's Surprise Island chapter book, this early reader allows children to step into reading with a Boxcar Children classic.

Step 2 Readers use basic vocabulary and short sentences to tell simple stories. For children who recognize familiar words and can sound out new words with help.
