A family mystery shared by two sisters

Penelope and her sister Pearl set out to identify the person who has been exchanging letters with their grandmother for years. Their search raises a second question: whether Pearl is still as interested in their shared adventures as Penelope is. The investigation points toward people in their community, including a tailor and a grocery-store owner, while the sisters’ changing enthusiasm adds a family dimension to the mystery. Full-color illustrations appear throughout, and the book is presented as a chapter-book step for emergent readers.

Book overview

From bestselling author Katie Cotugno and illustrator Amy Jindra Hodgson comes a charming full-color chapter-book series about a plucky seven-year-old who can see things other people miss, perfect for fans of Ivy & Bean

For as long as Penelope can remember, her grandma has had a super-secret pen pal. After years of wondering, Penelope and her sister Pearl are determined to find out who their grandma has been writing to all this time. Could it be Quinn, the glamorous tailor? Could it be Mr. Lee, the kind man who runs the grocery store?

Penelope can't wait to investigate this mystery with her sister, but the longer they look for the secret pen pal, the less excited Pearl seems. Can Penelope solve the mystery before Pearl loses interest, or has her sister outgrown their adventures together?

Featuring vibrant full-color illustrations on every page and a gentle, engaging mystery, Penelope Positano is ideal for emergent readers taking their first steps into chapter books.
