The Incorrigible Children of Ashton Place: Book II: The Hidden

The Incorrigible Children of Ashton Place: Book II: The Hidden Gallery

Of especially naughty children it is sometimes said, â€œThey must have been raised by wolves.â€ The Incorrigible Children actually were. Thanks to the efforts of their plucky governess, Miss Penelope Lumley, Alexander, Beowulf, and Cassiopeia are much more like children than wolf cubs now. They are accustomed to wearing clothes. They hardly ever howl at the moon. And for the most part, they resist the urge to chase squirrels up trees. Despite Penelopeâ€™s civilizing influence, the Incorrigibles still managed to ruin Lady Constanceâ€™s Christmas ball, nearly destroying the grand house. So while Ashton Place is being restored, Penelope, the Ashtons, and the children take up residence in London. Penelope is thrilled, as London offers so many opportunities to further the education of her unique students. But the city presents challenges, too, in the form of the palace guardsâ€™ bearskin hats, which drive the children wild â€“ not to mention the abundance of pigeons the Incorrigibles love to hunt. As they explore London, however, they discover more about themselves as clues about the childrenâ€™s â€“ and Penelopeâ€™s â€“ mysterious past crop up in the most unexpected waysâ€¦
