“The Vanderbeekers have always lived in the brownstone on 141st Street. It's practically another member of the family. So when their reclusive, curmudgeonly landlord decides not to renew their lease, the five siblings have eleven days to do whatever it takes to stay in their beloved home and convince the dreaded Beiderman just how wonderful they are.” Amazon
Delightful story of 5 children who, in devising a scheme, find out so much more…

I adored this picture book. It has beautiful messages about community, sharing, and gratitude. It‘s the picture book selection for Charlotte Mecklenburg Library‘s 2024 Community Reads program.
3.75⭐️ There were aspects of the story that I really liked, but was ho-hum about others. It felt liked it dragged in places, but overall I thought it was a really good book. It was one that I don‘t know if I will read again, but am glad that I did read. #2024 #fiction #bookclub #booksintranslation #contemporary

I hope to complete Prequel and work a bit more on The Alice Network this weekend. I just started the tagged book and am enjoying it.
There were about three thousand active satellites up in the sky, he'd read. Some twenty-thousand pieces of orbital debris. At any given moment, an average of nine thousand passenger planes flying.
And yet, he'd thought as he walked, without the last of the dinosaurs the sky would be empty.
“We always think there‘s enough time to do things with other people. Time to say things to them. And then something happens and then we stand there holding onto words like ‘if‘.”
