A Nebraska prairie family story shaped by the Orphan Train era

Set in late-1880s Nebraska, this young adult historical novel traces Izzy Carter and her adopted brother John from childhood into adulthood. Their lives unfold alongside the arrival of children sent from New York on the Orphan Train, placing adoption, family bonds, and the uncertainty faced by displaced young people at the center of the story. Joy and loss intertwine as the novel considers how a community responds to children in need, while faith in God and love are presented as sustaining forces through hardship.
