Journey on a Runaway Train

awesomessb - This newer and modern adaptation of the Boxcar Children is a continuation from the original series from what I can tell (I have only read the first book in either series). Henry, Jessie, Violet, and Benny Alden live with their grandfather and his housekeeper Mrs. McGregor. They decide to sell a trunk to an antiques dealer, Reddimus Curiosities. However, find a turtle that they do not own. More mysteries like this come their way, but the family later finds out they were puzzles by the Reddimus Society, who return lost artifacts. the Reddimus Society recruits them, but with a change of plans, the children are then chosen to travel the world. Along the way, the also meet enemies, too. I enjoyed this book, but I feel the original was better. Stiil, this is a good all-ages book.
