Enright's other works include four books about the Melendy children, three of which make up The Melendy Family trilogy: The Saturdays, The FourStory Mistake, and Then There Were Five. In The Saturdays, the young people pool their allowances so that each one, in turn, can enjoy a special day with enough money to do what he or she wants. This first novel in the trilogy takes place in New York, but the others take place in the country, emphasizing the adventures and pleasures to be found there. These books feature good characterizations and a fine understanding of what it is like to be a young person. The other book about the Melendy Family is Spiderwebfor Two: A Melendy Maze.
