About This Book

The Penderwicks are splitting up, for the first time in their lives; Daddy and Iantha are taking Ben on their honeymoon to England, and Rosalind is off to New Jersey with Anna, leaving Aunt Claire and Skye to navigate the rest of the family through a marvelously chaotic, occasionally tragic, but still hysterical vacation at Point Mouette.
