At the turn of the century in Indiana, two young boys can't help but fall into constant misadventures! This book is a sequel to Penrod, continuing his adventures - this time with a feisty best friend to fuel his fire! This novel is a classic American story that will fill you with nostalgia, set before the World War. It's written in an episodic style, with each episode tagging us along into a freshly brewed mischief! The pure joy of childhood mixed with boundless imagination, naivete, and freedom gives us a hilarious comedy of errors! The writing is very descriptive, taking you back in time and allowing you to be a part of the scene as you laugh along. Booth Tarkington, a two-time Pulitzer award winner is a writer that is essential to the Americana literary scene. He helped build comedy and storytelling into what it is! Light and adventurous, this is a fun book for young children to immerse in. The language is easy to follow, the illustrations set the scene and it is a quick read that never feels too heavy. Just remember one thing when it comes to mischief: Don't try this at home!
