Wednesday 2nd May, 2018 - Orphan Train by Christina Baker- Kline





  • Historical Fiction.
  • Published April, 2013
  • 278 pages
  • Two parallel stories, one from the past and the other the present.
  • A quick read ..... a few of us read it swiftly in one go.
  • A couple of us listened to the audiobook which is narrated by Jessica Almasy and Suzanne Toren.
  • We had a very good discussion about the book.  We never heard of orphan trains until this book.  It was an eye opener. Very sad!
