Penelope Takes Her Power Back

Description

Sometimes, navigating friendships can be challenging, but it is even more difficult when you are Penelope Yamada, a quirky seven-year-old who is ostracized by her school friends, including her best friend, Parker. Sad and confused, Penelope is encouraged by her older sister to use a four-step plan to end the elementary school drama. With the plan, her unicorn, and Menko cards in hand, Penelope soon confronts her peers at recess, in hopes of taking her power back. Will "P" be able to regain her power and win back her best friend?

With its imaginative illustrations and relatable storyline, Penelope Takes Her Power Back is the perfect storybook for children of all ages. Inspired by Adrienne Purnell Brown's niece, this coming-of-age story includes before, during, and after questions that give parents, grandparents, caregivers, and elementary school teachers another avenue of approaching conversations around themes, such as bullying, racism, exceptionalities, family, and friendship.
