Review:
Seim captures the world of orphans and foster children of early twentieth century America. It is hard not to fall in love with Charley, a child from the city streets of Boston...living with a foster family on a farm in Maine...a story of courage and resilience... A must read for all children trying to envision the past...an excellent history primer. --
