The Verts: A Story of Introverts and Extroverts
Ann Patchett
The Vert family is preparing for Ivan’s birthday. His older sister Estie believes a birthday should mean guests, hats, decorations, and a large gathering, so she plans a party and invites the neighbors. Ivan, however, does not want a party at all. The story sets Estie’s enthusiasm for celebrating against Ivan’s wish for something quieter, exploring different ways siblings approach the same family occasion.
