With more than one million copies sold, this series of modern classics about the charming Penderwick family from National Book Award-winner and New York Times best seller Jeanne Birdsall is perfect for fans of Noel Streatfeild and Edward Eager.

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!

Critic reviews

Starred Review, Publishers Weekly, April 11, 2011: "The Penderwick sisters' third adventure brings them back in full entertaining force...From start to finish, this is a summer holiday to savor."

Starred review, Booklist, May 15, 2011: "Drawing readers right into the family, [Birdsall] enlivens the everyday matters and endows her characters with so much individuality it’s as though she’s erased the word generic from the dictionary."

Hilarious Story

I love it.It is a hilarious,fun story I own a the books and this is my favorite.When Rosalind,Iantha and there father leave Skye is now the OAP, and is terrified!👌

Best book in the series!

My fav book in the series! The voice is so good! The voices of the characters are so differentiated. Even without the, said Skye or said Jane, I could understand who was talking

Incredible as always

Awesome hilarious story, as always. I love the focus on Sky and Jeffrey. I love the mentions and hints and discussions of crushes as a part of growing up and the safe environment their family is to live through those experiences. And I love how you can see how they can be either all-consuming or just a normal part of life or both. And I love the compassionate and totally from-the-child's-view way she approaches difficult family relationship experiences like divorce and step parenting etc, it's such a great part of her writing.
