Download or read book Penny written by Denise Brennan-Nelson and published by Sleeping Bear Press. This book was released on 2013-08-15 with total page 34 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Found by a young boy and placed into his pocket for safekeeping, Penny feels useless compared to the exciting Superball, the shiny Marble, the adventuresome Rock, and the colorful Bubblegum. But as she reminisces about her life and history, she realizes her worth, and it is reinforced by the young boy's need for her in an important decision. Denise Brennan-Nelson's boundless energy and enthusiasm comes from her days as a motivational speaker. Since the publication of her first book, Buzzy the Bumblebee in 1999, Denise has taken that enthusiasm into schools and inspired thousands of children to "bee-lieve" in themselves. Her second title, My Momma Likes to Say, shares her interest in and knowledge of clichés, idioms, and funny expressions used by adults and often misunderstood by the children who hear them. Award-winning wildlife artist Michael Glenn Monroe is also known for his charming character illustrations in such titles as Buzzy the Bumblebee, A Wish to be a Christmas Tree (read aloud on the Today Show in 2002 by Katie Couric), and The Christmas Humbugs. He brings this lively brand of illustration to the adventures of Penny.

Download or read book Penny from Heaven written by Jennifer L. Holm and published by Yearling. This book was released on 2007-12-26 with total page 290 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Newbery Honor–winning, New York Times–bestselling, and as full of fun and adventure as it is of deeper family issues. School’s out for summer, and Penny and her cousin Frankie have big plans to eat lots of butter pecan ice cream, swim at the local pool, and cheer on their favorite baseball team—the Brooklyn Dodgers! But sometimes things don’t go according to plan. Penny’s mom doesn’t want her to swim because she’s afraid Penny will get polio. Frankie is constantly getting into trouble, and Penny feels caught between the two sides of her family. But even if the summer doesn’t exactly start as planned . . . things can work out in the most unexpected ways! Set just after World War II, this thought-provoking novel also highlights the prejudice Penny’s Italian American family must confront because people of Italian descent were “the enemy” not long ago. Inspired by three-time Newbery Honor winner Jennifer Holm’s own Italian American family, Penny from Heaven is a story about families—about the things that tear them apart and the things that bring them back together. Includes an author’s note with photographs and background on World War II, internment camps, and 1950s America, as well as additional resources and websites. Booklist: “Holm impressively wraps pathos with comedy in this coming-of-age story, populated by a cast of vivid characters.”

Book excerpt: A clumsy nephilim. A vampire necromancer. The best pickpocket in all of London. Vampire daddies are all the rage, but Armando Rose really doesn't want one. He's always been too pretty for his own good, but when a friend inconveniently dies, leaving him with a child to take care of, he assumes he'll suddenly become less desirable to the undesirable men of the underground—a fact which would've suited him eminently, thank you very much. But he assumes wrong. His new charge is already the best pickpocket in London at seven years old, and there is no shortage of men willing to exploit her. Now, the Thames is alive with corpses thanks to the vengeful machinations of Jack Wish, who wants Cecilia's nimble fingers and Armando's body for himself. As a nephilim with two souls, Armando is corpse food. Unable to tap into his powers due to his father's refusal to acknowledge him, he is forced to seek out something he never has before—a vampire protector. Disfigured by a deranged nephilim, Kilgarrah Abaddon has reason enough to distrust angels, especially pretty ones who have a knack for finding themselves in trouble. If only Abaddon didn't have a hero complex. Can a supernaturally awkward angel and an enormous scarred vampire find love with a little help from a mischievous pickpocket? *** Features: bi vampire necromancer MC, gay nephilim MC, trans best friend, demi/pan well-demon friend, adorable pickpocket, queer archangel disasters Uriel and Bel, and... uhm, corpses. Spicy times; sans corpses. This story is also known as Victorian Vampire Daddy and is set in the Cascade Apocrypha storyworld.
