Gone Away Lake by Elizabeth Enright
In this enchanting tale, two adventurous cousins, Portia and Julian, stumble upon a forgotten summer resort while exploring the woods during their vacation. The once-bustling lakeside community is now a mysterious, overgrown haven, home to only two eccentric elderly siblings, Minnehaha and Pindar. As the children befriend the siblings, they uncover the rich history and secrets of the abandoned village, embarking on a summer filled with discovery, imagination, and the magic of bygone days. Their journey is a heartwarming exploration of friendship, nostalgia, and the timeless allure of hidden places.
