Description

The Children's Train A Novel by Viola Ardone In the aftermath of World War II, Italy is struggling to rebuild. For thousands of poor children from the south, the only way to survive is to be sent to live with families in the north. Seven-year-old Amerigo's life is about to change forever when he learns that a train will take him to a new home, where he will find safety, warmth, and food. Through Amerigo's curious eyes, we see a nation rising from the ashes of war, reborn. This heart-wrenching story of love, family, hope, and survival is a powerful exploration of identity and belonging. With the heart of Orphan Train and Before We Were Yours, it is a beautifully crafted tale of one young boy's journey to find his place in the world.
