<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>Upon leaving an oppressive summer camp, twelve-year-old Margaret Rose Kane spearheads a campaign to preserve three unique towers her great-uncles have been building in their backyard for more than forty years.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><b>I Prefer Not To....</b> <p/> That's Margaret Rose Kane's response to every activity she's asked to participate in at the summer camp to which she's been exiled while her parents are in Peru. So Margaret Rose is delighted when her beloved uncles rescue her from Camp Talequa, with its uptight camp director and cruel cabinmates, and bring her to stay with them at their wonderful house at 19 Schuyler Place. <p/> But Margaret Rose soon discovers that something is terribly wrong at 19 Schuyler Place. People in their newly gentrified neighborhood want to get rid of the three magnificent towers the uncles have spent forty-five years lovingly constructing of scrap metal and shards of glass and porcelain. Margaret Rose is outraged, and determined to strike a blow for art, for history, and for individuality...and no one is more surprised than Margaret Rose at the allies she finds for her mission.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>[One of] Spring's Best Kid's Books. <p/> <i>People</i> magazine<br><br>A thing of strange beauty. <p/> <i>New York Times Book Review</i><br><br>Elegant, absorbing...a veritable feast. <p/> <i>Publishers Weekly</i>, starred review<br><br>Konigsburg at her masterful best. <p/> <i>School Library Journal</i>, starred review<br><br>Literate, funny, and inspiring. <p/> <i>Washington Post</i><br>
