The Penderwicks
by Jeanne BirdsallFriendship, adventure, conflict ... those are some of the things you will find in The Penderwicks by Jeanne Birdsall. This is a novel about four very close sisters and their summer adventures as they meet an interesting boy named Jeffrey. The five have fun, adventures, and get in trouble throuought the summer. The problem is-- Jeffrey's stuck-up mother does not approve of this friendship and doesn't want Jeffrey to be with Rosalind, Skye, Jane, and Batty (the Penderwick sisters). How will the five keep their friendship?
