My name is not actually Penny Dreadful. It's Penelope Jones. The 'Dreadful' bit is my Dad's joke.
Penny Dreadful's funny antics are a must read for anyone who likes funny, family stories. Disaster features a trio of hilarious tales of trouble. Penny says "it's not even true that I'm dreadful. It's just sometimes my brilliant ideas don't work out completely brilliantly... But it's not my fault. I can't help it - I'm just a magnet for disaster."
Despite Penny's best efforts, disaster, destruction and drama just follow her around!
