Penelope Pumpernickel: Precocious Problem-Solver — Maryann Diorio

Eight-year-old Penelope Pumpernickel--Penny, for short--has run into a big problem. His name is Grandville Ungerleider--Grandy, for short.

Grandy wants to be Penny's friend, but he has a strange way of letting her know. Maybe his father's recent death has something to do with it.

Penny's best-friend-forever, Matilda Mendoza--Tilly, for short--offers Penny some good suggestions about what to do with Grandy.

When Grandy disrupts the Homeschool Consortium with his crazy antics, Penny must find a way to solve the big problems he causes.

In this first of the delightful Penelope Pumpernickel Series of chapter books for six-to-ten-year-old children, Penelope Pumpernickel learns that no matter how big a problem you face, there is always a way to solve it with God's help.
