The Penderwicks by Jeanne Birdsall

   The Penderwicks: A Summer Tale of Four Sisters, Two Rabbits, and a Very Interesting Boy is a realistic fiction book by Jeanne Birdsall. It is the first book in a series of 4 books.
   This book is about 4 sisters, Rosalind, Skye, Jane, and Batty. They're going on vacation to a cozy little cottage on the Arundel estate. The estate's snooty owner warns them to be well-behaved. They assure her that "We'll be perfect ladies". They are, until they meet Ms. Tifton's son, Jeffrey. It turns out to be a summer no one will forget!
   This book is told from all 4 sister's perspectives so you can see each views. Jeanne Birdsall makes this book humorous and suspenseful at the same time. My favorite part is when Jane pretends to be Mick Hart.
   This book is perfect for anyone who likes comedy, adventure, and realistic fiction. It's not too long but not too short and makes you want to keep reading. You should really read this book! -- Reviewed by Devayani P.
