Penderwicks book club activities

A lighthearted story of four girls and their father, a gentle, widowed botany professor who allows his daughters their freedom but is always nearby when they need comfort or support.

A few years ago, I was looking at the library for a new audiobook that we could listen to in the car. I picked up a book titled The Penderwicks: A Summer Tale of Four Sisters, Two Rabbits, and a Very Interesting Boy by Jeanne Birdsall. We fell in love with the Penderwick sisters immediately. We’ve gone on

Jeanne Birdsall’s The Penderwicks is a heartwarming, funny story about the adventure-filled summer of a close-knit family. A contemporary tale that feels truly timeless, this middle grade novel is perfect for readers (of all ages!) who enjoy classics like Little Women and Anne of Green Gables.
