About the movie:
Four orphaned and homeless siblings happen upon an abandoned boxcar, which with a little creativity and hard work, they gradually furnish with all the comforts of home.

Fearful that they will be sent to live with the reputedly cruel grandfather they have never met, the children keep their new home a secret - until a serious illness forces them to reveal themselves in order to save young Violet.

Featuring an all-star cast of voice actors, including Academy Award Nominee Martin Sheen (Apocalypse Now), J.K. Simmons (Spiderman), Zach Gordon (Diary of a Wimpy Kid), Joey King (Fargo), Mackenzie Foy (Twilight series), and Jadon Sand (LEGO: The Movie), this is the very first full-length, animated feature adaptation of Gertrude Chandler Warner's best-selling classic!

My Take on the Book
This was a fun movie. I was a big fan of the books, so when I heard that there was a movie that chronicled this too, I was excited to see this. This was a fun movie that did a good job at capturing the characters in the book the way that I would have imagined them. The actors did a great job at bringing the story to life and before you knew it the movie was over. This was a great movie with a great story that the whole family will love!
