About this book

On the train from Douglas to Centre Town, Glory Wetherell sees another school year as a burden. Her friends have moved on, while she must return to the seminary after falling behind. Diantha Leavitt, travelling to her job at a rubber factory, watches this unhappy schoolgirl with very different feelings. For Diantha, the books and lessons Glory resents represent a chance she longs to have.

Annie Hamilton Donnell's story for young readers builds its friendship around the daily railway ride. Glory proposes that the girls study together on the train and that she share what she learns in class. Affectionate exchanges with Aunt Hope and Diantha's little brother add a domestic warmth to the school story.
