Join us on September 26^th at 10:30 AM for Saturday Storytime as author/illustrator Miri Leshem-Pelly tunes in to our Crowdcast channel all the way from Israel, to share her picture book about a little doodle girl who takes control of her own creative destiny!

About the Book: Penny lives on a plain piece of paper, and she's bored. There's nothing to do, no one to talk to, and not a single way to keep herself entertained! Not one to wallow, Penny makes a decision: it's high time she ventured out into the world and explored other types of paper! But when she's not serious enough for the newspaper, not angular enough for the graph paper, and not repetitive enough for the wrapping paper, Penny doesn't know where she belongs. With some help from the friends she's met along her journey, though, she comes up with the perfect paper plan for herself. In this fun and funny book about fitting in and finding home, imagination wins the day!
