Overview

From New York Times best-selling author Karina Yan Glaser comes one of Times' Notable Children's Books of 2017: "In this delightful and heartwarming throwback to the big-family novels of yesteryear, a large biracial family might lose their beloved brownstone home, but win it back with an all-out charm offensive."

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

  • The Vanderbeekers---A wonderful story for all!

    Eleanor B. - 5 years 9 months ago

    A touching story of five siblings trying to save their home, a brownstone in New York. The struggles the siblings go through are so true to real life and their personalities so enjoyable any reader cannot help but fall in love with this rollicking tale of life in a large family. Even though the siblings sometimes fight and argue the love that Isa,Jessie, Oliver, Hyacinth, and Laney Vanderbeeker have for their family, home and neighbors is always prevailing. A wonderful read-aloud for ages 5+ and a great independent read for ages 8+. WONDERFUL!!!! #SummerReading
