For the past couple days I've been reading a book called The Penderwicks at Last. It's the fifth and final in a children's series that I started reading a few years ago. The first three are GREAT, the fourth one made me sad, and this last one leaves me wanting a little more. The series has a lot of parallels with Louisa May Alcott's Little Women, which follows a family of sisters as they grow up (and it's kind of a classic).
The Penderwick sisters are a more modern group than the March sisters from Little Women, but both families are full of spunk and mischief so if you like one, you're likely to enjoy the other. Skye and Jane are my favorite Penderwicks, which probably explains why I liked the first three books better. The last two books focus more on the younger siblings who, while still fun, are a little tamer.

I've decided I desperately need a new desk chair. I have this great drawing tablet but an awful wooden dining chair sitting in front of it that I can hardly bear to sit on.
I sketched some more guinea pigs today anyway. It's funny how they're such shapeless beans and yet it's still so difficult for me to decide when I've drawn them properly.

Have a day!
