About this listen

 With Father in Washington and Cuffy away visiting a sick cousin, almost anything might happen to the Melendys left behind at the Four-Story Mistake. In the Melendy family, adventures are inevitable: Mr. Titus and the catfish; the villainy of the DeLacey brothers; Rush's composition of Opus Three; Mona's first rhubarb pie and all the canning; Randy's arrowhead; the auction and fair for the Red Cross. But best of all is the friendship with Mark Herron which begins with a scrap-collection mission and comes to a grand climax on Oliver's birthday.

Here is Elizabeth Enright's story of a long and glorious summer in the country with the Melendy family.

Don't miss the other titles in the Melendy Quartet.©1944 Elizabeth Enright Gillham; 1972 Nicholas W. Gillham, Robert Gillham II, and Oliver Gillham (P)2004 Listen & Live Audio, Inc. Action & Adventure Classics Fiction Growing Up Growing Up & Facts of Life Literature & Fiction Adventure
