My name is not actually Penny Dreadful. It is Penelope Jones. The 'Dreadful' bit is my dad's JOKE.

But this time I really wasn't trying to be DREADFUL... No. I was just trying to DO MY BEST, so it is completely not my fault that right now I am sort of blueish all over and so is my sister Daisy's swan outfit. And I was also really TRYING TO HELP Joshua Bottomley fall in love with Daisy by doing a science experiment on him, but I did not know that he would just go a bit pale and green and it would all turn into one BIG kerfuffle!

Get ready for a taste of destruction with Penny's third side-splitting trio of troublesome tales! The first book in the Penny Dreadful series, Penny Dreadful is a Magnet for Disaster, was shortlisted for the Roald Dahl Funny Prize.
