The Peculiar Lives of Boys & Girls At Plumfield

Dan doesn't know much about where he comes from, nor where he's going, but where he is seems a right miracle. Years after following Nat Blake to Plumfield and being taken in by the eccentric Laurences, he's come to think of it as the most wonderful place in the world. There's Emil, the loud and imaginative, Franz the gentle, Dolly the dull, Billy the silent, Stuffy the jolly, Dick the hunchback, Tommy the troublemaker, Ned the brat, Nan the tomboy, Demi the politician, Teddy the baby, and Daisy the dutiful.

And then there's Nat. Musical and kind Nat Blake.

Ever since Dan followed Nat to Plumfield, his life has never been the same. But they're all growing up, and Dan fears he is not special enough to fit into their lives anymore. He's afraid to say goodbye . . . especially to the boy he hasn't ever been without.

With the world changing so hurriedly, Dan and his family struggle to come to terms with the fast-paced, peculiar world outside, and the changes happening within.

Can they brave the new and changing world?
