The Four-Story Mistake
The Four-Story Mistake | Elizabeth Enright
1 post | 7 read | 2 to read
Into the Four-Story Mistake, an odd-looking house with a confused architectural history, move the Melendy family -- Mona, Rush, Randy, Oliver, Father, and Cuffy, the housekeeper. Though disappointed about leaving their old brownstone in New York City, and apprehensive about living the country life, the four Melendy kids soon settle into this unusual new home. Here, they become absorbed in the adventures of the country, adjusting themselves with all their accustomed resourcefulness and discovering the many hidden attractions that the Four-Story Mistake has to offer. The Four-Story Mistake is the second installment of Enright's Melendy Quartet, an engaging and warm series about the close-knit Melendy family and their surprising adventures.

I hate the current covers so much but am loving re-visiting a childhood favorite, the Melendy family books. This is #2 of #4. They move into a house with a cool cupola, build a tree house, and even find a diamond and after they sell it, with the money they buy WW II bonds and there's also lots more adventures 😊. Ahh!!
