Meet the Penderwicks—Rosalind, Skye, Jane, and Batty—four unforgettable sisters with a knack for adventure! When they set off on a summer holiday with their father and loyal dog, Hound, they have no idea what’s in store. From exploring grand gardens and secret-filled attics to forming a special friendship with Jeffrey, their summer is full of magic. But not everyone is pleased with their escapades—Mrs. Tifton, the estate’s strict owner, is determined to keep them out of trouble. Can the Penderwicks resist mischief, or will this summer be their most unforgettable one yet?
