Then There Were Five

De: Elizabeth Enright

Narrado por: Pamela Dillman

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.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"Elizabeth Enright has a quick eye for the unexpected, the amusing and the beautiful in what might just be ordinary experiences." (The New York Times)

"Elizabeth Enright's children are so real they seem to step right out of the pages to become one's closest friends. Don't miss them." (Chicago Sunday Tribune)

Fabulous

Wonderful story and fabulous audio recording! The kids and I enjoyed listening to the story very much!

Great book!!!! ❤️❤️❤️

Amazing book!!
There’s a big chunk of the book when they’re exploring the cave that they never had and they just added it!! I never new it was in the book :)) they fixed the glitches too

I loved it!

This story was awesome! I loved all the characters! My favorite character was definitely Randy! I liked Mark as well. Definitely recommend!

We can't listen enough!

My children and I have listened to this book at least three times, and we have every intention of keeping it a regular in our audio library. Pamela Dillman is superb; she breathes life into each character. The author has a way with words that enchants even my youngest child. I thoroughly appreciate Enright's knack for describing the thoughts and feelings of each character with such authenticity. Sometimes I forget that the Melendy children aren't real! Each of the Melendy books is a treasure, but this one is my favorite.

Cozy & Loving

It gives you adventure and a story that will never fade away in our hearts. One of my all time favorite books! 🤟🤟🥰
