Four siblings. One summer. A house full of secrets. The Bobbsey twins - Bert, Nan, Flossie, and Freddie - are spending the season at Cloverbank farm, where summer stretches before them like an open road: peaches to pick, caves to explore, and mischief to get into at every turn. But beneath all the adventure lurks a puzzle that captures their collective attention: a mysterious package has arrived for their father, and no amount of sneaky questioning will reveal what's inside. As the twins scheme to keep their own birthday gifts hidden from each other while the mystery deepens, they discover that working together - even when competing - is what being a family means. Laura Lee Hope writes with warmth and wit about the small dramas that feel enormous to children, where a secret package becomes as thrilling as any pirate treasure. This is vintage adventure at its finest: wholesome, fast-paced, and full of the particular joy that comes from watching four clever children tackle the mysteries of summer.
