Publisher's Summary

Nine-year-old Ethan Cooper has managed to keep his family together for a year in a Pennsylvania orphanage. Now he and his siblings are boarding a train headed west. He can't help but worry: Mr. and Mrs. Rush in Nebraska have agreed to adopt all four Cooper children, but what if they change their minds?

In the meantime, Ethan and his siblings encounter their first dust storm, explore train cars, and watch friend after friend leave with new parents. The children dream that soon they will have a new ma and pa too.

Based on the story of a real family, this second book in the historical Beyond the Orphan Train series reminds us that God never leaves us, no matter how far we journey to find home.

Great listen for the whole family.

This is the 2nd of a series that is based on a true story, set at the end of the 1800's

Suitable for 8 years old to adult.

The whole family enjoyed listening to this.

Clean. No bad language, sexual references, etc.

Only wholesome morals that we can all learn from.
