Penelope Kingston goes on a camping trip with her classmates in the second book in the charming new Penelope Perfect chapter book series. Penelope Kingston is determined not to feel anxious about going on a school camping trip. On last year’s trip, Penelope cried (only tears, not sobs) when a teacher made them climb a ridiculously steep and frightening hill. Penelope would never forgive herself if she did that again.

To make sure she has a practically perfect time this year, Penelope has written a (very private) list of rules. And what’s rule number one? No crying.

Penelope is a whole year older now. And (more importantly) she now has her very own best friend to bunk with. Will this camping trip be the perfect weekend she’s expecting?
