Penny dreadful This book was a fiction. The person I liked the best was Cosmo because he always says funny things and is very kind. At the end of chapter 1 he shared the raffia owl with Penny. I would recommend this book to kids who are interested in fascinating, adventurous books.

Uh-oh! Penny Dreadful (of course, that's not her REAL name, only her dad's JOKE) is back and this time she's creating even more trouble than before! Penny is a funny, feisty girl of around 7-8 who always seems to be a 'magnet for disaster'. This time she is intent on winning her school talent show along with her best friend, Connor. Penny knows that she can win, but is she really a brilliant magician? Is sawing the annoying Bridget Grimes in half going to end in tears? Plus, cooking is harder than it looks! Are Penny's cake baking skills really Bake-Off standard? And WHY does EVERYTHING have to go wrong for her and her BRILLIANT IDEAS TM? Penny Dreadful's fourth book is hilarious and easy to read with wonderful pictures. I love reading about her mishap adventures. My favourite character was Penny, of course, because you can't help feeling awfully sorry for her when things don't QUITE go to plan... I rated this book 4/5 stars because it was packed with humour, but it wasn't in my age range. I would recommend this book to children aged 6-8 who like funny and adventure books.

I rated this book a 5 because there is a girl called Bridget Grimes and she got sawed in half by Penny and she didn't like it. My favourite character is Daisy as she said she would be turning over a new leaf but she didn't and said something nasty! I would recommend this book to my friends because everyone is funny and hilarious.

I have the book under my bed and have only read a little bit and already can’t put it down. If you have heard of the books Agatha parrot, these are just like them. I would recommend this to people who like diaries and chatty language. It’s really funny too

I liked this book because Penny is always so creative and does whatever her imagination tells her to do

It was really sad for Penny because she had a really mean sister and people just did not like her. She was only trying to express herself and she was trying to be normal in her own way.

You should read this book because it is hilarious and funny in all different ways. I rate it 4 because it leaves me on a cliffhanger and I prefer it wrapped up nicely.
