Add a Commentthe vook was amazing! i love the way all the characters have real personalities, all have flaws, and seem so real that its like you could see them while walking to grocery store. also they're adventures are almost 100% believable. read this book!!!!
Would that all families could be so involved with and helpful to each other! Such a positive experience! Idyllic.
I love this book! I own it and have read it several times. The girls are all 'real', the plot is engaging but fun, and they all have adventures that aren't of the unbelievable type.
This book is perfect for readers just graduating to chapter books, and who don't want anything too scary. A series of events, with a plot line that keeps moving but never confuses, and a cast of characters that is sure to have at least one that every child can relate to. A great precursor to Narnia or A Series of Unfortunate Events. Proof that oldies are goodies!
I've read this book over 3 times and it still never gets old.
wow parnika, meichen said this book was really good and now i know u think so too, so i'm definitely going to read it :)
Really awesome book!!! My favorite character is Skye. She is always in trouble loves math and wants to be a astrophysisit
best book ever!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Wonderful and outstanding.
The four Penderwick sisters are each nothing alike: motherly Rosalind (age 12), tough-girl Skye (age 11), daydreamer Jane (age 10) and imaginative Batty (age 4). For four weeks in the summer, they rent a summer home in Massachusetts - this year it's a new cottage called "Arundel". The vacation house sits far back on a huge property, behind a large mansion. Living in the mansion is Mrs. Tifton and her son, Jeffrey - who is more like a prisoner than a resident. When the Penderwicks befriend Jeffrey, the summer escapades begin: bull chases, ruined garden parties, lost bunnies. The book is a fun read and very well written. I recommend it for girls 9-12. There is a sequel book: The Penderwicks on Gardam Street. Another Penderwicks book is planned for summer 2011.
