I was a big fan of The Boxcar Children when I was a kid but I haven't read them for over two decades now. I checked out the graphic novel to revisit my childhood favorites and I can't understand why I was so addicted to them. The story doesn't make sense to me at all. Perhaps it did when I was a child.

Such a blast from the past! I absolutely ADORED The Boxcar Children in my early elementary school days -- so finding the graphic novel of the first book was AMAZING -- of course!!!

I try to read this book to my class every Spring and when I saw there was a graphic novel, I had to check it out. It was ok. It hit the main plot points, but the characters were all one dimensional. None of the humor and pathos survived. I’d rather see a child experience the Box Car Children as a read aloud or an early independent chapter book.

I really enjoyed this graphic novel. I read the books a long time ago and I really enjoyed seeing everything fleshed out in pictures
