(4) 4-6 Penelope Perfect series. In Private, stress over the giant "challenge swing" on the school camping trip is too much for the already nervous Penelope Kingston; in Lucky, Penelope desperately wants to impress her absentee dad with her stall at the school fair. Erratic font changes can be distracting, but readers who relate to Penelope's (sometimes exhausting) personality will appreciate Perry's realistic treatment of childhood anxiety and perfectionism. Review covers these Penelope Perfect titles: Lucky Jars & Broken Promises and Private List for Camp Success.
