About the Author
Gertrude Chandler Warner was born in Putnam, Connecticut, on April 16, 1890, to Edgar and Jane Warner. Her family included a sister, Frances, and a brother, John. From the age of five, she dreamed of becoming an author. She wrote stories for her Grandfather Carpenter, and each Christmas she gave him one of these stories as a gift. Today, Ms. Warner is best remembered as the author of The Boxcar Children Mysteries.
From Booklist
In this bare-bones graphic-novel adaptation of a Boxcar Children story, the Alden children move with their grandfather into a lighthouse and are given cause to wonder about a local fisherman’s son as well as what is disturbing their own dog in the nighttime. Awkward art dangles the children’s expressions between manga and unexplained sadness, while the original independence of the foursome in the text novels is undercut by Grandfather’s regular interventions here. The attraction of a dependable cast and comfortable pacing makes this good for collections where the series has gained popularity. Grades 2-4. --Francisca Goldsmith
