Home Child
Description:
The year is 1914. Thirteen-year-old Arthur is a "home child" who has just been sent from an orphanage in England to work on a Canadian farm. Sadie, a year younger, surreptitiously develops a friendship with Arthur despite her mother's warnings to keep away from him. Then Arthur saves the house from a fire she carelessly started. Will Sadie reciprocate by taking a stand for Arthur against her mother's rules?
Home Child explores how Home Children - and their American counterparts on the Orphan Train - experienced being displaced, enslaved and ostracized.
