About the book
The sixth book in the humorous, heartfelt, highly illustrated series about a girl who doodles to cope with her anxiety, from #1 New York Times bestselling author Sara Shepard.
When Penny Lowry, a fifth grader, and her friends discover they have to attend an after-school etiquette class, Penny is overwhelmed with worries. Who would have thought there were so many wrong ways to make a bed or pass bread at the dinner table? It's nerve-wracking!
To make matters worse, during a lesson on writing thank-you cards, Penny receives an anonymous note from someone who clearly has a crush on her! Penny isn't prepared to have a crush on anyone yet. Should she start to have feelings for someone? And what about her classmates? The etiquette class is supposed to teach children how to act like adults, but Penny isn't sure if she's ready to grow up.
All of this is a lot to handle, but thankfully Penny has her loyal dog Cosmo, her friends, and her passion for drawing to help her navigate through these new challenges!
