Publisher's Summary

From fleeing the Irish Potato Famine to losing his parents on the ship to New York, seven-year-old Daniel Flynn knows about adversity. As Daniel sings the songs of home to earn pennies for food, pickpocket Thomas Reilly becomes his ally and friend until he, too, is cast out onto the street. A destitute refugee in a foreign land, Daniel, together with Thomas and his sister, Molly, are swept up by the Orphan Train Movement to find better lives with families across America. 

For Daniel, will the dream prove elusive? How strong are bonds of loyalty when everything is at stake? 

Based on real history, the strength of the characters in New York Orphan will move you with their desperate plight to survive.
