The Boxcar Children: Fully Illustrated Edition

(4) 4-6 Illustrated by Anne Yvonne Gilbert & Gretchen Ellen Powers. This is a large-size storybook edition of the perennially popular, if old-fashioned, story about four orphaned siblings. With muted-color floral borders on every page, each chapter opens with a silhouette image and includes a full-page illustration. What's notable is an appended profile of Warner, her work, and her legacy, enhanced by archival photos and reproductions. Nostalgic adults and collectors are the target audience. Bib.
