Today I read a new book called ''The Boxcar Children.''
One night 4 kids named Benny, Violet, Jessie, and Henry stood in front of a bakery. Violet was 10. Had brown eyes and hair. Benny was 5. He was also the littlest of them all. Jessie was the biggest girl of them all. She was about 12. Henry was 12 too. He was the biggest boy. He we also the fastest. The cook saw them and asked if they had a family. Henry answered there dead. So the cook let them stay for the night. Violet, and Benny went to sleep on benches. Jessie, and Henry heard the cook talking to the baker about getting rid of Benny. So they woke Violet, picked up Benny and took some bread and hit the road. When Benny woke up they told him what happened. Soon they found a hay stack and slept there. When they woke up they went looking for a place to stay. Finally Jessie found an old boxcar and they made it into their home. One day Henry went to get a job. While he was gone, Jessie found a puppy with a thorn in his foot. Jessie gently pushed it out. When Henry came back he saw the dog named Watch. Jessie told him all about it. The next day Henry went to work Jessie, Benny, and Violet went to the dump. They found cups, plates, forks, and knives. When Henry came back from Mrs. Moore's house, he sat down for a nice dinner. Everything went well until Violet got sick. A little later there grandfather came to see if she was feeling better. She was. When she was 100 percent better, they went to their grandfather's house. There they stayed happy forever. Ashleigh
