Gratefully Yours


Make sure your kids know about the Orphan Trains. (We will loan you the PBS video that interviews many of the actual orphans in their later years.) There are several youth novels based on the Orphan Train experience (exceeded only by the countless Holocaust books).
Jane Buchanan has given us a good opportunity to talk about gratitude in this 117 page, 1997 "Pick of the Lists" (American Bookseller). Brief references to hell freezing and God vs. luck. Reading level = 5.5; Quality = 4; Acceptability = 4 out of 5.
