    About this audiobook

    The finale you've all been waiting for: The Penderwicks at Last is the final, flawless installment in the modern classic series from National Book Award winner and New York Times bestselling author Jeanne Birdsall!

    Nine years, five older siblings, a few beloved dogs, and an endless array of adventures—these are the things that have shaped Lydia's journey since readers first met her in The Penderwicks in Spring.

    Now it's summertime, and eleven-year-old Lydia is dancing at the bus stop, waiting for big sister Batty to get home from college.

    This is a very important dance and a very important wait because the two youngest sisters are about to arrive home to find out that the Penderwicks will all be returning to Arundel this summer, the place where it all began. And better still is the occasion: a good old-fashioned, homemade-by-Penderwicks wedding.

    Bursting with heart and brimming with charm, this is a joyful, hilarious ode to the family we love best. And oh my MOPS—Meeting of Penderwick Siblings—does Jeanne Birdsall's The Penderwicks at Last crescendo to one perfect Penderwick finale.

    Editor's Note

    Heartwarming conclusion…

    The final installment of the Penderwick siblings’ saga takes the family back to Arundel, where the story began. A heartwarming conclusion to this beloved series that focuses on the youngest Penderwick, Lydia.
