Title: Classic story for today's kids
Product review: I read the Melendy series of books by Elizabeth Enright when I was a child. Enright really knows how kids think and what they want!Written in the 1940s and 1950s, they are a glimpse of childhood as it was. Kids go on adventures, ride the bus, attend the circus and concerts - all by themselves. As long as they get home by dinner and remember the family's rules of "don't talk to strangers and if you get lost, you can always ask a policeman" - all is well.The Four-story Mistake furthers their stories when their family moves to the countryside. These plucky city kids have to learn all about country life - even simple things like riding a bike are new to them.I bought the audiobook version for listening to on long car trips and my eight year old son loves listening to them at bedtime as well. The audio book reader is a real treat as well.
