Acerca de esta escucha
This young listeners' edition of Christina Baker Kline's New York Times best-selling novel Orphan Train follows a young foster girl who forms an unlikely bond with a 91-year-old woman. Adapted and condensed for a young audience, Orphan Train Girl includes an author's note.
Molly Ayer has been in foster care since she was eight years old. Most of the time, Molly knows it's her attitude that's the problem, but after being shipped from one family to another, she's had her fair share of adults treating her like an inconvenience. So when Molly's forced to help an elderly woman clean out her attic for community service, Molly is wary. Just another adult to treat her like a troublemaker.
But from the very moment they meet, Molly realizes that Vivian, a well-off 91-year-old, isn't like any of the adults she's encountered before. Vivian asks Molly questions about her life and actually listens when Molly responds. Molly soon sees they have more in common than she thought. Vivian was once an orphan, too - an Irish immigrant to New York City who was put on a train to the Midwest with hundreds of other children - and she can understand, better than anyone else, the emotional binds that have been making Molly's life so hard. Together, they not only clear boxes of past mementos from Vivian's attic, but forge a path of friendship, forgiveness, and new beginnings for their future.

Historia
American Book Award-winning author Tananarive Due's second collection of stories ranges from horror to science fiction to suspense. From the mysterious, magical town of Gracetown to the aftermath of a pandemic to the reaches of the far future, Due's stories all share a sense of dread and fear balanced with heart and hope. In some of these stories, the monster is racism itself; others address the monster within, or other universal struggles set against the supernatural or surreal. All of them are written with Due's trademark attention to detail and deep characterization.

The thing about Hank's new friend Inkling is, he's invisible. No, not imaginary. Inkling is an invisible bandapat, a creature native only to the Peruvian Woods of Mystery. (Or maybe it is the Ukrainian glaciers. Inkling hardly ever gets his stories straight.) Now Inkling has found his way to Brooklyn and into Hank's laundry basket on his quest for squash - bandapats' favorite food. But Hank has bigger problems than helping Inkling fend off maniac doggies and search for yummy pumpkins: Bruno Gillicut is a lunch-stealing dirtbug caveperson and he's got to be stopped.

You can learn a lot about life by observing another species. That's what Humphrey was told when he was first brought to Room 26. And boy, is it true! In addition to having FUN-FUN-FUN in class, each weekend this amazing hamster gets to sleep over with a different student, like Lower-Your-Voice-A.J. and Speak-Up-Sayeh. Soon Humphrey learns to read, write, and even shoot rubber bands (only in self-defense, of course). With lots of friends to help, adventures to enjoy, and a cage with a lock-that-doesn't-lock, Humphrey's life is almost perfect. If only the teacher wasn't out to get him!

Historia
Though his life begins "in a commonplace way," Christopher Mouse is not the least bit common. Born in an ordinary wire cage, he endures various young owners who range from bad to worse before narrowly escaping death by taxidermy. His adventures continue in the Metropolitan Museum of Art as he encounters a large cat in the Egyptian room. Throughout his journeys, Christopher proves an adventurer of the most intrepid sort - and a budding poet as well.

Historia
The first time I heard about Planet Choom, we'd been on Mars for almost a year. But life on the Mars station was grim, and since Earth was no longer an option (we may have blown it up), it was time to find a new home. That's how we ended up on Choom with the Zhuri. They're very smart. They also look like giant mosquitos. But that's not why it's so hard to live here. The Zhuri don't like us. And if humankind is going to survive, it's up to my family to change their minds. No pressure.

Historia
Tuesdays at Castle Glower are Princess Celie's favorite days. That's because on Tuesdays, the castle adds a new room, a turret, or sometimes even an entire wing. No one ever knows what the castle will do next, and no one - other than Celie, that is - takes the time to map out the new additions. But when King and Queen Glower are ambushed and their fate is unknown, it's up to Celie, with her secret knowledge of the castle's never-ending twists and turns, to protect their home and save their kingdom.

As the youngest in her family, Dory really wants attention; and more than anything, she wants her brother and sister to play with her. But she's too much of a baby for them, so she's left to her own devices - including her wild imagination and untiring energy. Her siblings may roll their eyes at her childish games, but Dory has lots of things to do: outsmarting the monsters all over the house, escaping from prison (aka time-out), and exacting revenge on her sister's favorite doll.

Amazing account of History for all ages
As a Native American woman and a home schooling parent, I am always looking for good books to read and share with my children. A client of mine told me about this book and it is a very easy listen and read and very informative of the early 1900's. showing not only cultural differences but bring together of ages in the later 1900's and early 2000 generational gaps with history. I highly recommend this book.
Having a grandmother born in 1910, and sent for adoption in 1915, this is an amazing account of stories she told.

Enjoyable.
I cared about the 2 women featured in this book. They both experienced struggles in their own ways, but to listen to what life was like in the 1930s was something I appreciated. I even bought the book for my 13 year old daughter to put under the tree. Great book!

Amazing Adaptation
I read the original book which is my favorite book. I was excited to see this adaptation for younger readers though I'm about to go re-listen to the original after this review.
As a teacher I'm working this less familiar piece of history into a new Social Studies framework for my district. We are supposed to add a more variety of voices and I felt this represents both the voices of immigration and children while also shedding light onto the precursor for foster care. Every year I get students who are fostered or adopted so thanks to this well written piece of historical fiction those kids will get to see "their faces" in history. The ongoing issue of unwanted children or those with parents unable to care for them is one that will never go away.
I wish we could do a book study with students on this. But one thing at a time.
My only critique is that the book had an ending. I was so wrapped up in every word I wanted it to continue. I'm off to go re-listen to the original for that reason.

absolutely fantastic
to call this a historic fiction doesnt give it anywhere near enough scope. I loved everything about this story, the narrator and the premise. I'm going to be looking into more by this autor and read by this narrator.

IT WAS AMAZING!
I think that this period in time is important but overlooked as it is one of the more distasteful parts of American history. This book sheds light on the ups and downs of the orphans through a wonderfully wrote story.

I absolutely love the accent. The Irish accent gave the book a different feeling, which is sort of uncommon.
