Life for a family on a 19th-century Nebraska homestead is difficult enough, with illness and weather causing worries about crops and finances, and conflicts between ranchers and farmers. For 11 year-old Nateís family, things grow even darker when he gets his leg crushed in an accident on the farm. Then, Nateís father brings home John Worth, just off the Orphan Train, to help out.The richly drawn characters and their courageous, candid story present an important slice of history.
