With sparkly glitter on every page, this tactile treat from a new picture book talent follows Princess Penelope's search for her mischievous kitten.

Peggy is a sweet girl that loves her kitten, Cottonball, more than anything. Peggy also knows she should always obey her mommy and listen to what she says. One day, Peggy forgot to pick up her crayons like her mommy asked her to, but she didn't want to get into trouble. When her mommy saw them still on the floor in her room, Peggy's mind raced, and she quickly blurted out, "I did pick them up. It must've been Cottonball!" That surprised the poor little kitten. Peggy had lied to her mommy and hurt her best friend. Sad and heartbroken, Cottonball slipped out the door and was gone. Will Cottonball be okay? Will she ever come back? What about Peggy? Will she be honest with her mommy? What will happen next?

Since she dresses like a princess, travels like a princess, and rules her kingdom just like a princess, Penelope is certain that she is royalty.
