The Chocolate Sundae Mystery

The Aldens are excited to work at Mr. Brown's ice cream parlor. But on their first day, an angry customer storms out, and then each night ice cream disappears from the freezer! With a rival ice cream truck attracting the store's old customers, will the Aldens be able to save Mr. Brown's business?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.
