Abstract/Description

What if you lose your parents?

What if you live on the streets?

What if you live in an orphanage?

What if a family of quirky scientists adopts you?

These are the questions 10 orphans explore in 1880 England. The experiment is simple, can they form a family, or will their pasts catch up to them? With 10 children there is no end to the fun, laughter and trouble in one house.

Every experiment can go right or wrong.
