The Four Story Mistake is the second volume in Elizabeth Enright's Melendy Quartet series. Siblings Mona (13 -the aspiring actress), Rush (12 - the aspiring musician), Randy (10-and-a-half - the aspiring artist and dancer), and Oliver (6-who likes playing with army toys) are moving with their father and nanny away from the city and the rooms they've always lived in to a new house out in the country known as the 'Four Story Mistake.' Written with an eye towards the everyday enchantments of childhood, the children explore their new surroundings, discovering brooks, eccentric neighbors with alligators in the bathtub, a dusty cellar with troves of ancient magazines and toys, and mysteries boarded up behind the walls of their new home. Written over half a century ago, The Melendy Quartet books are simultaneously a winning portrait of the mid-20th century, as well as a timeless tale of childhood fun. 177 pages, softcover.
