The Panther Mystery

The Aldens travel to the Florida Everglades to search for a missing park ranger who studies the endangered Florida panther. But even with the help of a Miccosukee girl from the local village, they struggle to find a lead and the clues aren't adding up. The Aldens can't help but wonder: does Ranger Andrew want to stay missing?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.
