The Mystery in the Cave

Hello, I'm going to do a book review on Mystery in the Cave by Gertrude Chandler Warner! Would you ever want to be trapped in a cave for a long time in the dark? Here are two important things that happened in this story. First, they found a rock in the way so they could not get inside the tunnel. Also, they found an underground stream below the cave and there the Boxcar Children found a missing boat and Benny's headlamp! I like this story because there was a lot of an action. Also, the mystery was hard and I like hard mysteries! The pictures helped me understand the story a little bit better. The message the author shared was Caves are not just for fun there also are treasures! Why doesn't anybody want them down there? This is the best story!

Not bad.

This is my favirote Boxcar Children book. But if you compare it with other books it,s just o.k.
