Great resource!,
By A Customer
This review is from: A Dangerous Promise (Orphan Train Adventures) (Mass Market Paperback)
As an educator of upper elementary students, I think the whole Orphan Train Adventures series is outstanding! It tells a tale while weaving in historical events. It makes learning history more interesting because the stories are told from a young person's point of view!
5.0 out of 5 stars
Excellent Series!,

This review is from: A Dangerous Promise (Orphan Train Adventures) (Mass Market Paperback)
My daughter read the first book in this series (A Family Apart: The Orphan Train Adventures) and was hooked! We read the first book in a school "chat n chew" forum and the 5th grader boys and girls both liked the book. The series has 6 books that follows the kids in one family as they leave inner city New York for the "wild west" in Missouri and Kansas. Wonderful series!
This particular book is the second about the brother named Mike.

I purchased this book for my son for a book report and decided to read it myself. It's a wonderful book for all readers and we're looking forward to purchasing the set.
