Penny Draws a Best Friend

Why does the cubby room always smell like farts? Who etched the words 'I Am Bug Man' inside my desk? Why is Mum suddenly acting like she has a secret?

Nobody said school would be easy, and Penny Lowry's anxiety means a million questions are always spinning through her thoughts. Luckily she's got a lot to look forward to, like her favourite after-school activity, Art Club, and seeing her best friend Violet again after spending the whole summer apart.

The thing is, Violet has been acting weird ever since she got back. She never wants to hang out anymore, says Art Club is for babies, and spends all her time with Riley, the meanest girl in school. Did Penny do something wrong? And if she did, can she undo it?

In this heavily-illustrated, hilariously sweet introduction to a lovable kid working on managing her anxiety, the author of the #1 bestselling Pretty Little Liars series gets to the heart of how to let go of the friends who aren't right for you . . . and how to make room for the ones who are.
