A but of a dated book, but a very sweet story, nevertheless. I read this to my kids as a bedtime story, and they loved it.
Peter is the cutest of characters, being adopted into the family (as well as Penny) he fits right in, and seems to instantly bond with them all. He's a kid with a good work ethic and a compassionate heart, which makes him such a good role model for young boys!
This is a great book for boys, in my opinion. I don't know if they'd have the patience to read it through themselves, since there are a lot of references to the way life was lived back in the time period it was written. There are probably things that would need to be explained to understand, which is easy to do when you are reading it aloud.
