Box Car Children- Chapter 9: Fun in the Cherry Orchard

Chapter 9

Chapter Summary: The day Dr. Moore had invited the Children to pick cherries arrives, and they decide to all go and help. Concerned that someone might spot four children walking and turn them in to their grandfather, the children walk two by two and soon arrive at the orchard. A long day is spent picking cherries and at the end, the children leave four dollars richer and loaded with baskets of cherries. After they leave, the good doctor reads an announcement in the newspaper put in by the children's grandfather. The announcement says four children are missing and a $5,000 dollar reward is offered for their whereabouts. The doctor is amazed to find out the children belong to the richest man in the area but decides not to turn them in right away.
