Description
The Raptor Rehab Center's reputation is at stake!
Can the Aldens figure out who's responsible for the bad press before the center gets shut down for good? Henry, Jessie, Violet, and Benny are excited to learn more about raptors when they volunteer at a rehab center for wild birds. But not long after they arrive, a series of strange events makes it seem like someone might be trying to sabotage the center. Who could the culprit be, and why would they want to cause trouble for injured birds?

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 (R) series has more than one hundred books.
