Bookroo's summary
In 1934, Kit's essay contest victory grants her a train adventure across America. With Aunt Millie by her side, she heads to Glacier Park, where her brother works. Along the way, Kit encounters girl hobos, a Pullman Porter, and even the President. Each meeting offers new perspectives and challenges, shaping her journey. What awaits her in the breathtaking landscapes of Glacier Park?
From the publisher
Kit wins an essay contest sponsored by a railroad company, and she wins a railway journey for two, anywhere in the United States. She picks Aunt Millie for a traveling partner, and Glacier Park as her destination, because her brother Charlie is there working for the CCC. Along the way, Kit meets a pair of girl hobos, a Pullman Porter, a girl who lives on a ranch in Montana, a Blackfoot Indian girl, and even President Franklin Roosevelt and First Lady Eleanor! Half of the book takes place as Kit and Aunt Millie tour breathtaking Glacier Park.
