A Family Apart

      Recently,  I read a book called A Family Apart.  A Family Apart is written by Joan Lowery Nixon. It is about an orphan train. This book is one of the many books in the series.
       A Family Apart is about 6 children that are sent on an orphan train by their widow mom before the Civil War. Frances is the oldest. She promised her mother that she would protect her little brother, but how can she do that if they are separated? Frances decides that she will act like a boy so she and her little brother will be allowed to stay together. In this book there is a part that includes the Underground Railroad.

      

      I think you should read this book because once you start, you won't stop and you'll find that you'll be in the story with the characters too. If you love thrillers you should you should read this book!
