The Penderwicks: A Summer Tale of Four Sisters, Two Rabbits, and a Very Interesting Boy by Jeanne Birdsall

5.0

Oh, to be a kid with the joys of summer vacation (although mine were never at a cottage on the property of a great manor), running around the neighborhood (this case a manor), getting into trouble, and playing with siblings and friends.
The characterization in this book is so well done. I feel like I know the characters personally--I laugh at their quirks, relate to them, ached with them.
Excellent book!
