It's summer vacation for the Boxcar Children in this full-color graphic novel! A tropical paradise turns into a thrilling adventure when the Aldens discover a shipwreck mystery on a remote desert island.
Henry, Jessie, Violet, and Benny are brothers and sisters. They're orphans too, and when the children found an abandoned boxcar in the woods, they decided to call it home—and became the Boxcar Children!
The Alden siblings are enjoying their new life with Grandfather when they learn they will be voyaging on a large ship to a remote island in the south seas! The kids are looking forward to exploring, swimming, eating bananas and coconuts, and learning survival skills. But when they get to the island, they notice strange things: loud noises in the night, a mysterious hidden cave, and a talking bird that raises more questions than he answers! What's more, the kids can't shake the feeling they are being watched. Could they be in danger?
With vivid settings, fast-paced action, and kid-friendly suspense, Shipwrecked! is a new chapter in the Boxcar Children's beloved tradition of mystery-solving adventures that have captivated generations.
Gertrude Chandler Warner grew up in Putnam, Connecticut. She wrote The Boxcar Children because she had always dreamed about what it would be like to live in a caboose or a freight car—just as the Aldens do. When readers asked for more adventures, Warner wrote more books—a total of nineteen in all. After her death, other authors have continued to write stories about Henry, Jessie, Violet, and Benny Alden, and today The Boxcar Children® series has more than one hundred books.
