The Penderwicks on Gardam Street

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

The Penderwick sisters are home on Gardam Street and ready for an adventure! But the adventure they get isn’t quite what they had in mind. Mr. Penderwick’s sister has decided it’s time for him to start dating—and the girls know that can only mean one thing: disaster. Enter the Save-Daddy Plan—a plot so brilliant, so bold, so funny, that only the Penderwick girls could have come up with it. It’s high jinks, big laughs, and loads of family warmth as the Penderwicks triumphantly return.


From the Hardcover edition.

I decided to skim through a few of the Penderwick books to preview and see if they were appropriate for my ten year old grand daughter. The Penderwick family has me completely captivated. The four sisters and their dad are fully developed, very individual, extremely likable characters. I ended up not skimming, but devouring two of these fast paced and richly conceived adventures. I will read them all with great pleasure. Each book captures a season in the life of this charmingly wholesome and robust family whose mother has died of cancer. My grand daughter will enjoy them also, I am sure.

I can't express how much I love the Penderwicks! This whimsical family got me through a tough recuperation from recent knee surgery and reminded me of beloved books I read as a child. Like Noel Streatfield's "Shoes" and Edward Eager's "Half Magic" series, I was entranced by the Penderwick family from the first page to the last. It's no small achievement for an author to create an unforgettable family that is old-fashioned, yet with modern sensibilities. Hats off to the inimitable Jeanne Birdsall, whose three books kept me happily distracted while recuperating. Then I bought all three books for my granddaughter. I can't wait to read them together with her. Just one question -- when is the next Penderwick book coming out?

My 8 year old daughter is a bit too young for the complex family environment of the penderwick family and Jeffrey's family, but she loved the kids relationship & meaningful friendships of the book. Cagney & the older sister relationship had to be explained to an 8yr old too. Good book for 10-12 year olds. But since we already discussed these relationships with her, she's excited to read the follow up books. The readability is for 4th grade though...

Both my 5th grade daughter and I adore this (and the other books of this series) book. It is kind of funny, because the story is absolutely wholesome and ordinary with no really major climax, but the character's are so lively that the story keeps moving smoothly. The author does a great job reminding us older readers what it was like to be a kid. It reminds me of "The Christmas Story" movie in a way; nothing amazing happens, but an awesome story.
