Why did Christina Baker Kline write Orphan Train?
I think I was drawn to the orphan train story in part because two of my own grandparents were orphans who spoke little about their early lives. As a novelist I've always been fascinated with how people tell the stories of their lives and what those stories reveal – intentionally or not – about who they are.

Is the book Orphan Train a true story?
The train is filled with dozens of other children who have lost their families in one way or another; they are now hoping that their journey will connect them with new parents and a new, better life. Kline's book is fictional, but it's based on the very true history of thousands of children shipped to the Midwest.
