Overview / 简介: |
Henry, Jessie, Violet and Benny, four orphaned brothers and sisters, suddenly appear in a small town. No one knows who these young wanderers are of where they have come from. Frightened to live with a grandfather they have never met, the children make a home for themselves in an abondoned red boxcar they discover in the woods. Henry, the oldest, goes to town to earn money and buy food and supplies.
Ambitious and resourceful, the plucky children make a happy life for themselves - until Violet gets too sick for her brothers and sister to care for her.
This unabridged recording will delight any child who has fantasized about being on his or her own and overcoming every obstacle |
Foreign Customer Review / 国外客户评价: |
| This is the story of four orphaned children who take to the road and fend for themselves for a (thankfully) short time. They're resilient, smart, caring, innovative, hard-working, imaginative, polite, clean, thrifty, brave, etc. We worry for them -- briefly -- so there's a little bit of tension in the story -- enough tension to keep the reader interested (as if their adventure isn't enough).
When my friends and I first read this book -- probably second or third grade back in the 1950's, we were inspired to make our own boxcar "home". We didn't have access to a boxcar, but we did have access to a dump, and we used it. Our boxcar was a room in a large garage, used with permission of the owner. We scrounged from the dump and from our homes, and for a summer we had our own place. It's one of my favorite memories. |
