This review is from: The Growling Bear Mystery (The Boxcar Children Mysteries #61) (Paperback)

The Aldens had go to yellow stone park for a trip. And they heard of someone say someone lost a bag of gold there, so many people try to find it. But a person put a sign "Close" so no one can get it but her. Do you think the Aldens will find the gold?

4.0 out of 5 stars Yellowstone mystery, September 18, 1999

This review is from: The Growling Bear Mystery (The Boxcar Children Mysteries #61) (Paperback)

In Yellowstone the Aldens wonder who is trying to find the lost cabin on Lost Cabin Trail. From a disapearring map to a bear following the children to a snowy day and a man walking on the trail section that is closed makes this a terrific mystery. I only gave it a four because it didn't have as good as a plot in the beggining.
