The Adventures of Ociee Nash is a breath of fresh air - fun for both children and adults. The story follows Ociee, a spirited tomboy from rural Mississippi (the only home she'd ever known) as she travels by train to Asheville, NC. In Asheville she will learn to become a lady. But it seems that as Ociee learns ladylike behavior from her Aunt Mamie, everyone learns valuable life lessons from Ociee as well.
I enjoyed the historical figures (Nellie Bly, the Wright Brothers, and President McKinley) woven through Ociee's train ride. Although all the actors played their roles quite well, Skyler Day as Ociee and Anthony Rodrieguez as the gypsy were my favorites.
