Product description

My name is not actually Penny Dreadful. It is Penelope Jones. The ‘Dreadful’ bit is my dad’s JOKE.

But I do not mean to be dreadful – in fact, I am actually trying to turn over a new leaf… You see, sawing Bridget Grimes in half for the school show was supposed to be a GOOD THING. And I didn’t mean to get up to any SHENANIGANS on the school trip. Plus I worked extra-especially hard on the CAKE OF DREAMS for Mum’s birthday… but somehow it still turned into a HUGE calamity.

Three fantastically funny Penny Dreadful adventures in one fab book! Shortlisted for the Roald Dahl Funny Prize.
