Orphan Train by Christina Baker Kline--I finished this book in one day, which says a lot about the story. The historical aspect of Orphan Trains which transported children from the East Coast to Midwest in the late 1800's and early 1900's was a piece of history that this history major never stumbled upon. The parallel story of the present-day foster child captivated me almost as much. Vivian(91) and Molly(17) share a common bond that spans generations and region.
