Summary

The Vanderbeekers have always lived in the brownstone on 141st Street. It's practically a member of the family. So when their reclusive, curmudgeonly landlord decides not to renew their lease, the five siblings have 11 days to do whatever it takes to stay in their beloved home and convince the dreaded landlord just how wonderful they are...and all is fair in love and war when it comes to keeping their home.

Beautiful story-telling

This is a warm-hearted story of a family living in New York who face moving from the brownstone they've always lived in. They're not wealthy, but they are part of a community and they don't want to leave, so the kids set about trying to persuade their landlord to renew their lease. It doesn't all go to plan, and there are squabbles and minor disasters along the way.

Both adults and kids are totally convincing, and the family pets and the homeless kittens in the backyard all have their parts to play too.

It woyld make wonderful family listening, a pleasure for adults and children alike.
