of the audition and the two solved mysteries.
“No,” Grandfather said with a big grin. “This.” He reached beneath his chair and pulled out a chauffeur’s hat. Grandfather slipped the hat on. “I’m the official driver for Superstar Watch and his crew.”
“Sir, can you please drive us out for ice cream?” Benny asked.
“It would be my pleasure, young Master Benny,” Grandfather said, tipping his hat. “Shall we bring the Superstar along for a ride?”
“No,” Benny said. “He’s busy.”
The Alden children looked at their dog.
Superstar Watch was in the kitchen, eating a bowl of his favorite Wundermutt dog food.
About the Author
G ERTRUDE C HANDLER W ARNER discovered when she was teaching that many readers who like an exciting story could find no books that were both easy and fun to read. She decided to try to meet this need, and her first book, The Boxcar Children, quickly proved she had succeeded.
Miss Warner drew on her own experiences to write the mystery. As a child she spent hours watching trains go by on the tracks opposite her family home. She often dreamed about what it would be like to set up housekeeping in a caboose or freight car — the situation the Alden children find themselves in.
When Miss Warner received requests for more adventures involving Henry, Jessie, Violet, and Benny Alden, she began additional stories. In each, she chose a special setting and introduced unusual or eccentric characters who liked the unpredictable.
While the mystery element is central to each of Miss Warner’s books, she never thought of them as strictly juvenile mysteries. She liked to stress the Aldens’ independence and resourcefulness and their solid New England devotion to using up and making do. The Aldens go about most of their adventures with as little adult supervision as possible — something else that delights young readers.
Miss Warner lived in Putnam, Connecticut, until her death in 1979. During her lifetime, she received hundreds of letters from girls and boys telling her how much they liked her books.
