About this listen

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 best-selling 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 fans first met her in The Penderwicks in Spring.

Now, it's summertime, and 11-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 ol'-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, lest we ever forget - does Jeanne Birdsall's The Penderwicks at Last crescendo to one perfect Penderwick finale.

Critic reviews

"Penderwick fans will be saddened yet satisfied by Susan Denaker's narration of the series' final book. The crispness of her narration conveys the old-fashioned feeling of the close-knit family's reminiscences..... Denaker's verve expresses the delight Lydia and her siblings find in even the smallest events." (AudioFile)

My family and I have giggled our way through this series. Although the final two books were not quite as wonderful as the previous ones, we still loved listening to follow the adventures of our favorite family. Enjoy.

Sad to see the series end

The book was a little short. For this being the last book, I’m not a huge fan of having a cliffhanger.

It was. Very interesting, I liked it!
