Staff Picks

Orphan Train is a very eye opening read about children in the foster care system. The book highlights two characters, an elderly woman and a teenage girl whose lives become intertwined.  What makes the book especially interesting are the details concerning the orphan train, and the fact that this train actually existed.  It also includes photographs of actual train riders.
