Summary "In all the years that Elinora Gassbeek has been matron of the Little Tulip Orphanage, not once have the Rules for Baby Abandonment been broken--until the autumn of 1880, when five babies are left in outrageous circumstances: one in a tin toolbox, one in a coal bucket, one in a picnic hamper, one in a wheat sack, and finally, one in a coffin-shaped basket ... And although their cruel matron might think they're 'unadoptable,' they know their individuality is what makes them special--and so determined to stay together"--Dust jacket flap.
