Together, they not only clear boxes of past mementos from Vivian\'s attic, but forge a path of friendship, forgiveness, and new beginnings..
Vivian was an orphan, too--an Irish immigrant to New York City who was put on a so-called Orphan Train to the Midwest with hundreds of other children--and she can understand, better than anyone else, the emotional binds that have been making Molly\'s life so hard.
Soon Molly sees they have more in common than she thought.
Vivian asks Molly questions about her life and actually listens to the answers.
But from the moment they meet, Molly realizes that Vivian isn\'t like any of the adults she\'s encountered before.
So when Molly\'s forced to help a wealthy elderly woman clean out her attic for community service, Molly is wary.
Most of the time, Molly knows it\'s her attitude that\'s the problem, but after being shipped from one family to another, she\'s had her fair share of adults treating her like an inconvenience.
