All-of-a-Kind Family

By: Sydney Taylor

Narrated by: Suzanne Toren

It's the turn of the 20th century in New York's Lower East Side and a sense of adventure and excitement abounds for five young sisters - Ella, Henny, Sarah, Charlotte and Gertie. Follow along as they search for hidden buttons while dusting Mama's front parlor, or explore the basement warehouse of Papa's peddler's shop on rainy days. The five girls enjoy doing everything together, especially when it involves holidays and surprises. But no one could have prepared them for the biggest surprise of all!©1951 by Follett Publishing Company; 1979 by Ralph Taylor (P)2000 Listen & Live Audio, Inc.

Critic reviews

"Memorable." (The New York Times)
"Heartwarming bit of Americana. Delightful." (Library Journal)
"Warmly related from the author's own childhood memories." (Chicago Tribune)

Wonderful story about family life.

Incredible simple story that keeps the attention of young children and older children also. Excellent for car rides.

Recommended

This was a sweet, wholesome story that my five year old daughter and I both enjoyed! It is a story about simple things like lost library books, family celebrations, eating soup, and going to the beach. It held our attention to the point where the story had to be paused if one of us needed to leave the room.

All of a kind of family

I loved your book 📖 I finished it in only one day I loved when They go to to the beach
