Synopsis

Georgia, an imaginative, shy twelve-year old, lives with her family in a train on the shores of the Albemarle Sound (North Carolina). As the United States enters the Great Depression, she learns to face her fear of the "rail-riders" who come South looking for work, and in so doing, finds the courage to turn one of her dreams into a reality by creating a community park for her neighbors to enjoy.
