1.0 out of 5 starsNot a good book
By Kindle Customer on October 27, 2014
Format: Paperback Verified Purchase
Most box car children books are excellent but this one isn't that good. I don't like the curse in the computer game. I looked thru
this book and didn't feel that I could give it to my grandchildren. Just did not like the subject matter.

5.0 out of 5 starsawsome
By A. Matika on March 5, 2013
Format: Kindle Edition
This book is great for kids 7 years or older because it is about kids, but one character is creepy. I recommend this book for people who haven't read a lot of mysteries. This prepares kids for mysteries like Sherlock Holmes. It is really easy to understand. By Henry, 8 years old.

5.0 out of 5 starsA great book
A Kid's Review on August 11, 2008
Format: Paperback
We listened to this book on CD and we have some others on CD and we really like to listen to them in the car. If you like mysteries I think you'll like this book and the others too! My 6 year old brother was a little freaked out by the Nadja character and found it a little scary but I'm 8 and I enjoyed it a lot.

3.0 out of 5 starsThe Boxcar Children
A Kid's Review on November 19, 2002
Format: Paperback
I like the book The Box Car Children. It was fun to read because they are kids like me that like to play on the coumputer. I also like the book because it was a mystery and I like mysteries . The Boxcar Children was an intesting story because the kids had to spy on a competing computer company that was trying to steal their ideas.
The best part of this book was when the kids went out to eat at a restaurant. They were trying to spy on the lady who worked for the other company. She had been stealing ideas from the kids' company. Once the kids found her at the restaurant, they brought the boss from their company there to see the lady. She had lied about being in a meeting.
The author did a good job describing the setting of the story. The main parts of the story took place at the QuestMaster Company. This is the company the kids got their computer from. Jerermy, the boss of this company, wanted the job to be fun. They had a basketball court outside, a pool table in their gameroom, and they were allowed to bring their pets with them to work. The Company is in an old bulding that looks like it is falling down on the outside but is really nice inside. The main conflict of this story was between two computer companies. A competitor was trying to steal the "Ringmaster II" game from the QuestMaster Company. An employee betrayed the QuestMaster Company by stealing the disk for the competitor.

4.0 out of 5 starsDid Ms. Warner really write this book? Computers and emails were not in her time.
By Woowaa on January 2, 2012
Format: Paperback
I was wondering when this book was written. The computer game and the concept of email were not in Ms. Warner's time if she truly died in 1979. Anyone who can help? The book is good for the target age group, though.
