Two stories parallel in this amazing book that focuses on foster care and the ways it has and has not changed in our country. A young girl who is close to aging out of the system has yet to find a place to call home and just wants to feel at peace in one place. The other story centers around an elderly woman who had to leave New York on an orphan train headed west in hopes of finding a family that would take her in and care for her. They both were abused by families and the system and it was sad to see that we haven't figured out how to fix the situation; if there is a solution.
