* SIGNED BOOKPLATE *

Through encounters with all kinds of coins and bills, a penny discovers just how much she is worth in this fun, pun-packed tale.

Pennies, worthless? Non-cents!

Hot off the minting press, Penny feels like a million bucks. But as other coins and bills are spent while she sits forgotten, she begins to doubt her value. She is too small to slot-surf with Quarter. Even penny candy sells for a dime! Refusing to be short-changed, she sets out to find her purpose at any cost.

Readers will laugh at a wealth of money puns, learn a basic lesson on US currency, and discover that self-worth is truly priceless.

David N. ★★★★★

The puns in this one had me laughing out loud — "non-cents" genuinely got me. The signed bookplate on the inside cover is a nice touch too, feels more special than a plain signature. My kid now keeps asking what coins are worth, so it's doing something right.

Adam ★★★★★

Bought this for my niece's birthday and the signed bookplate on the inside cover made it feel like a real keepsake. The coin characters had her giggling at bedtime, and I appreciated that the wordplay works for adults reading aloud too.

Daniel G. ★★★★★

The puns in this one are genuinely clever, and the signed bookplate adds a nice personal touch for a gift. I read it aloud to my niece and we were both giggling by the end, it's a keeper for any kid who loves wordplay.
