Annotation: One warm night four children stood in front of a bakery. No one knew them. No one knew where they had come from.

Henry, Jessie, Violet, and Benny used to live alone in a boxcar. Now they have a home with their grandfather, and a young Russian gymnast has come for a visit.

Henry, Jessie, Violet, and Benny are happy to share their home with Katya, the young gymnast, and to watch her practice for the big competition. When things start going wrong at the gym it quickly becomes clear that someone is trying to ruin Katya's chances of winning. But who?

The Aldens want to help. The trouble is, Katya's been acting a little mysterious herself -- almost as if she's got something to hide. But what?

Can the Boxcar Children solve both mysteries before the big competition?

Publisher Description:

Katya, a Russian gymnast, has come to Greenfield for a competition, and she's staying with the Aldens. But it seems someone is trying to keep Katya from winning, and the young gymnast has secrets of her own. Can the Boxcar Children help Katya and save the competition?


Contributor Bio(s): Warner, Gertrude Chandler: - Gertrude Chandler Warner was born in 1890 in Putnam, Connecticut, where she taught school and wrote The Boxcar Children because she had often imagined how delightful it would be to live in a caboose or freight car. Encouraged by the book's success, she went on to write eighteen more stories about the Alden children.
