Description:
In 1893 Cissy Sissney and her family rush to join the tens of thousands of land runners intent on staking a new claim to their futures in the Oklahoma Territory. But within hours of having dragged their few belongings to the side of the tracks at the forlorn patch of dirt that the map calls Florence, the Sissneys are asked to sell their claim to the high and mighty Red Rock Railroad. When all the new settlers but one refuse, the president of the railroad lowers the boom: There will be no more trains stopping at Florence. Ever! And without the railroad, the town can't survive.
Expand description
In a novel filled with a heartwarming faith in the promise of a new land, incredibly versatile Carnegie Medalist Geraldine McCaughrean spins a rollicking tale about the beguiling shenanigans the citizens of Florence resort to to stop the train before they are forced to abandon their homes forever.
