The Aldens spend the summer on their aunt's ranch! The ranch is a beautiful place, but there are some unusual things happening behind the scenes. As the Boxcar Children explore the land, they make an amazing discovery.

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.

Critic Reviews

"Though these homages to ­Warner’s old stories may appeal to the parents of new readers more than the readers themselves, the books still serve as fun mysteries on a ­beginner reading level." —School Library Journal
