Nellie's mama can't afford to keep her fed. On a bright day in 1895, Mama takes her to the orphanage and leaves her there, with her sister, her cousin, and a battered valise.
As the heavy doors of the orphanage close, Nellie wants to cry. But she can't. She's got to watch out for her cousin. But how can she, when her own mama couldn't? She's only twelve.
Based on a true story of the author's great-grandmother.
