Description

Witness the power of family history and family love in this funny, poignant addition to a series that the New York Times Book Review hails as “delightful and heartwarming.”

It’s summer on 141st Street, and the Vanderbeekers are looking forward to Papa’s surprise fortieth birthday party. But when Papa must leave town suddenly to help his best friend, trouble in the form of their distant grandparents shows up on their doorstep.

Not only must the Vanderbeekers face the disappointment of ruined plans, but they have more than one family secret to solve if they are going to give Papa the special birthday he deserves.

The New York Times bestselling Vanderbeekers series is perfect for fans of the Penderwicks. As ALA Booklist commented in a starred review: “Few families in children’s literature are as engaging or amusing as the Vanderbeekers, even in times of turmoil.”

The series includes:

  • The Vanderbeekers of 141st Street
  • The Vanderbeekers and the Hidden Garden
  • The Vanderbeekers to the Rescue
  • The Vanderbeekers Lost and Found
  • The Vanderbeekers Make a Wish
  • The Vanderbeekers on the Road
  • The Vanderbeekers Ever After
