(AR Quiz No. 238043; Accelerated Reader Quiz Information IL: MY - BL: 4.7) 

Young Harrison Beck is involved in thrilling adventures while accompanying his travel-writer Uncle Nat on a variety of train journeys. Details of the full series are available on https://www.adventuresontrains.com/books  

Beetle Boy
