Synopsis
An absorbing, classic fantasy that taps into the wishful thinking of every imaginative child.
The invisible residents of Pineapple Place have lived on the same block for fifty years, where nobody ages and nothing changes - and Jeremiah can’t stand it anymore! Then Mr. Sweeny accidentally moves them to Athens, Connecticut, instead of Athens, Greece, and Jeremiah meets Ruby, a girl from the outside world who can see him in reflections. Will things ever be the same?

About the Author
Anne Lindbergh, the daughter of Charles A. and Anne Morrow Lindbergh and sister of Reeve Lindbergh, grew up in a house filled with books and was encouraged in her writing of stories and poems at an early age. The author of numerous acclaimed novels for young readers, Anne Lindbergh died in 1993. She will long be remembered as, in the words of PUBLISHERS WEEKLY, a writer "of literary grace and a mesmerizing storyteller."
From Publishers Weekly
Jeremiah Jenkins was last heard from in The People of Pineapple Place, about a mobile, invisible street inhabited by people who never grow old. Now Jeremiah is tired of being nine years old and a fourth grader. When he meets and befriends an ordinary girl, Ruby, he sets in motion events that could alter Pineapple Place forever. The logic of the story is flawless as Lindbergh gracefully explains away magical occurrences and surprising developments. As for the folk of Pineapple Place (who bore poor Jeremiah), they will intrigue and charm the most skeptical of readers, and their actions seem to point, handily, to more immortal adventures. Ages 8-12.
