If they prefer classics, The Boxcar Children® Mysteries will keep them turning pages all summer, no joke. There are over 150 books in the series!

If they enjoy new takes on old favorites, The Boxcar Children® Interactive Mysteries is the way to go. From a haunted hotel to the Wild West, the Aldens are counting on your child to follow the clues and solve the mystery.

If they like superheroes, Zapato Power will show them how they can make a difference in their own neighborhood, no special shoes required.

Summer is the perfect time for kids to immerse themselves in another world, so encourage them to dive into a series that will last all season!
