Does anyone know if there will be a 4th book? I sure hope so!

Yes, there is. I met Jeanne Birdsall and she said she's currently writing the fourth book. It takes place five years later, apparently, but I'm still excited for it! She said (on her website, too) that it takes her about three years to write/publish a book, so it will probably be out in 2014.

So excited! I don't care how old I get, I'll still read these.

i know its just wierd

That is awesome I can't wait!

Bummer! Sadly the fourth Penderwick book will be coming out in the spring of 2015, not 2014. Now all us Penderwick fans will have to wait another year! What a shame...I was planning to get it for Christmas.

Rats! :(

The books are worth it, though i wish they'd come sooner... I also don't know what I think about the girls being that much older.... I was reading on it, and it said on a Q& A there would be a 5th, I dont think I'll ever be too old for the books either!!!!

Ooh, I can't wait for the fourth Penderwicks. It's super weird, though, to imagine Skye seventeen and Batty eleven...Rosalind eighteen and Jane sixteen I can imagine, though. But Skye- 17??!!

I am hoping that it isn't a Little Woman repeat because I don't think I could make it through Skye and Jeffrey NOT getting together:(

oh ya, that would suck

Really!!! I'm so excited. Do you know when in 2014?

I don't know. On Å·±¦ÓéÀÖ it just says 2014. Hopefully there will be more details soon :)

Do you know what it'll be called?

I think its out in may

Omg that's blike, soon!!! really soon!!!

I think it's coming out in March 2015. i can't believe that Skye will be 17, she's my favorite character too! And so much like me! I also hope that Skye and Jeffrey end up together! I'm so excited!

I know! I can't believe that Skye is going to be 17! That's so old! I can't wait to read it :)

I feel like it will stand out from the other books, don't you?

Totally! Skye (and everyone else for that matter) will have so many more mature problems. I mean...17! Almost an adults! It will be so odd to read.

Yeah, Skye definitely will have some growing up to do, especially with some certain relationships with certain....people. (Hint, Hint: Jeffrey)

Everyones been calling that since book one. They just need to FINALLY get together ;)

Yeah, it'll be hard on Skye, growing up is hard for everyone, but for Skye, it'll be the hardest. Remember when Skye and Jeffrey had that conversation about getting married? When is Jeanne Birdsall going to stop torturing us?

Hopefully in this book. But isn't there supposed to be one more after this?

I believe so, but after the fifth book, she will be done...or at least that's what I've heard. Also, it will be SO much harder for Skye, not only because she's a tomboy, but because she is very beautiful, she won't see it. I feel like it will be a Peter Pan kind of thing. Skye knows she's going to grow up, she just doesn't want to admit it.

Ya :-( Hopefully it won't be too hard for her. Or Jeffrey for that matter.

I think it's just going to be drama after drama. Also, Batty-11? Ben-8? I wonder if she's given up on fantasy! I feel like that will be part of the book.

It's going to be so sad to read about Batty growing up!

Yeah, I wonder how Ben's going to hold up.

I hope Batty doesn't leave him for older friends! What if they've grown apart since the last book? :-(

I don't know!I can't imagine them not being best friends! I also wonder about relationships in the family. I mean, what are Skye's feelings towards Ben? What are Jane's feelings towards Ben? Did Rosalind like her trip in NJ? Is that were it was?

Ugghhhhhh, I still can't believe we have to wait another couple months till we find out!

Yeah, it's really disappointing.
Do you think that Jeffrey will like Skye and she will be all confused? Or do you think that they will realize it at the same time? What about Rosalind?
And Jane's almost/ might be able to now drive! What's that all about?

I think that Jeffery will realize that he likes Skye far before Skye realizes she likes Jeffery. Skye just doesn't seem like the kind of person who thinks about her feelings a lot. (In fact, it seems like she would probably try to avoid her feelings...)

Definitely. I agree 100%. I think she will be all confused inside. Jeffrey of course will be nervous about telling Skye that their friendship is blossoming into something more. I also think that Jane will freak out once she sees the signs. I mean, she will probably predict it at the beginning of the book, and by the end, Skye and Jeffrey will FINALLY get together!

But isn't there supposed to be another book? If there's a 5th book I don't think that Jeffery and Skye will get together in the fourth. I think they would come to realize their feelings but won't actually "get together" till the last book.

You do have a point. However, i think that the last book will be about Mr. Penderwick and his feelings about his girls growing up. By the fifth book, i predict, it will be 5 or so years after the fourth, so Rosalind will probably be i a serious relationship or married! Crazy huh? I think it will be a conclusion of all of the books.

Omg, I didn't even think about that! A whole 5 years older than they are in the next book!?!?! That's too crazy to imagine...

It also means Skye and Jeffery probably won't stay together.

I'm not sure if it will be five years, but that's what I'm predicting.

I don't know whether I want your prediction to be true or not.

Yeah, me either. There are just SO many possibilities!

I can't believe that we have to wait 'till may to get answers! And then probably another 2-3 years before the last book!

It's so disappointing. But, it IS a lot of work to be an author. I mean, I've read about the process of making and publishing a book, and it takes FOREVER! Plus, the time it takes to actually write, revise, and edit the book! Imagine how much Jane Birdsall has to go through! And, most of the time, the editors and publishers reject your book multiple times for various reasons! It's a lot of hard work!
