Henry, Jessie, Violet and Benny, four orphaned brothers and sisters,
suddenly appear in a small town. No one knows who these young wanderers
are of where they have come from. Frightened to live with a grandfather
they have never met, the children make a home for themselves in an
abondoned red boxcar they discover in the woods. Henry, the oldest, goes
to town to earn money and buy food and supplies.
Ambitious and resourceful, the plucky children make a happy life for
themselves - until Violet gets too sick for her brothers and sister to
care for her.
This unabridged recording will delight any child who has fantasized
about being on his or her own and overcoming every obstacle.
