  • Description and Reviews

    As in Roald Dahl's James and the Giant Peach, Polly Horvath tells the story of an abandoned child who is sent to live with two distant relatives in a big, lonely house. What starts out as a fairly grim proposition transforms as Ratchet befriends the endearing, downright hilarious 91-year-old twins Aunt Tilly and Aunt Penpen who are “as different as chalk and cheese” and learns the ways of rural Maine. summarized from Amazon.com [reviews|asin=]
