This series of modern classics about the charming Penderwick family from
National Book Award winner and New York Times bestseller Jeanne
Birdsall is perfect for fans of Noel Streatfeild and Edward Eager. Over
one million copies sold, now with a bright new look!
When summer comes around, it's off to the beach for Rosalind . . . and
off to Maine with Aunt Claire for the rest of the Penderwick girls, as
well as their old friend, Jeffrey.
That leaves Skye as OAP (oldest available Penderwick)--a terrifying
notion for all, but for Skye especially. Things look good as they settle
into their cozy cottage, with a rocky shore, enthusiastic seagulls, a
just-right corner store, and a charming next-door neighbor. But can Skye
hold it together long enough to figure out Rosalind's directions about
not letting Batty explode? Will Jane's Love Survey come to a tragic
conclusion after she meets the alluring Dominic? Is Batty--contrary to
all accepted wisdom--the only Penderwick capable of carrying a tune? And
will Jeffrey be able to keep peace between the girls . . . these girls
who are his second, and most heartfelt, family?
It's a rollicking ride as the Penderwicks continue their unforgettable
adventures in a story filled with laughs and joyful tears!
