Childrens | Historical
THE FIRST BOOK IN A HISTORICAL SERIES THAT'S PERFECT FOR
COMMON CORE AND FOR FANS OF THE BOXCAR CHILDREN! Jack, Frances, and Frances's younger brother Harold have
been ripped from the world they knew in New York and sent to
Kansas on an orphan train at the turn of the century. As the
train chugs closer and closer to its destination, the
children begin to hear terrible rumors about the lives that
await them. And so they decide to change their fate the only
way they know how. . . . They jump off the train. There, in
the middle of the woods, they meet a boy who will transform
their lives forever. His name is Alexander, and he tells
them they've come to a place nobody knows about-especially
not adult-and "where all children in need of freedom are
accepted." It's a place called Wanderville, Alexander says,
and now Jack, Frances, and Harold are its very first
citizens.
