The Vanderbeekers have always lived in the brownstone on 141st Street. It's practically another member of the family. So when their reclusive, curmudgeonly landlord decides not to renew their lease, the five siblings have eleven days to do whatever it takes to stay in their beloved home and convince the dreaded Beiderman just how wonderful they are. And all is fair in love and war when it comes to keeping their home.

Heartwarming and funny submitted by shlim on June 14, 2021, 1:46pm The Vanderbeekers of 141st Street is heartwarming, funny, and makes you smile. I enjoyed this book a lot and fell in love with the characters. I love how the Vanderbeekers are so different from each other, yet so similar at the same time. I would recommend this book for anyone who loves a book that will make you laugh, will make you happy, and will be a pure page-turner.
