var gDcsId = "dcs35t4vc10000chxa0maatv9_2u9t"; RODZINA by Karen Cushman Clarion Books ISBN: 0618133518 Ages 10-14 224 pages Rodzina has seen the face of tragedy several times over, and now it seems as if hope has turned its back on this homely immigrant from Poland. Rodzina and many other orphaned children of all ages are being shipped out of Chicago on a train. They are going west to find new homes and establish new lives. At the time, the powers-that-be believed that working on farms as laborers would be good for these city orphans. Rodzina and many of the other orphans consider this change in circumstances to be a sentence to a life of slavery, and needless to say, Rodzina would rather live in an orphanage or even on the streets than face an existence in a strange place where she has to work in the fields from sun up to sun down day after day. Bitter, sharp and angry, Rodzina isolates herself from everyone else on the train as it clatters west. At each town where the train stops, a few more orphans find homes until Rodzina is the only one left, alone and unwanted. Carefully researched, RODZINA tells us of a time when orphans were not to be trusted and were often treated little better than slaves or beasts of burden. It was not uncommon for orphans to have their teeth and limbs examined by prospective 'parents' at the time of 'adoption' to determine their worthiness as potential farmhands. In the back of the book, the reader will find a detailed history of the Orphan Train and other similar efforts to 'rehabilitate' orphaned and unwanted children.

Featuring Karen Cushman Published in California Kids! , March 1999, South Florida Parenting , March 2002, and Gainesville Family Magazine, October 2002 Cushman lives in Washington with her husband and cat. She’s hard at work on her fifth novel, Rodzina, about an orphaned Polish girl in Chicago who travels west on an orphan train. "I ran across a book on the orphan trains that really affected me. The picture on the front cover of all those tiny little children dressed up in their best clothes standing in front of an engine. . .I thought of them standing on the platform as people passed, almost like they were picking a puppy or kitten. What would the kids have been thinking? Please take me. Please don’t take me. What will happen if you take me? What will happen if you don’t take me?” HOW TO CONTACT KAREN CUSHMAN Fan Mail: Karen Cushman, c/o Clarion Books, 215 Park Avenue South, New York, NY 10003
