Books like The Box-Car Children

This original 1924 edition of the Boxcar Children has some changes from the edition that I grew up with. The children's drunk father is in the picture until he dies (at the beginning). Many details are the same, but many are different. Jessie is "Jess," Alden is "Cordyce," and the place names have changed as well. There were several changes that I enjoyed reading about: ginseng hunting, printing with blackberry juice for ink, and haircuts for the girls. If you're a fan, you might enjoy reading this original edition to compare. I downloaded a free version at Project Gutenberg: http://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/42796
