Publisher's Synopsis
An adventure is afoot in the town of Green Oaks as eight-year-old Penelope Henry gets the best surprise of her summer: a camping trip to beautiful Blueberry Mountain. The whole family, including her mama, papa, and brother, Zinger, pack up their cart and head into the wilderness to relax, meet new lifelong friends, and learn valuable lessons that will forever change them.
But not everything about Blueberry Mountain is as peaceful as it seems. When a group of bandits start causing trouble in camp, it's up to Penny and her friends to save the day--with the help of an irreverent leprechaun named Dinty, who only appears to children.
Kathleen has been writing since she was a little girl. Growing up in Ireland, she was regaled with the legends woven into the histories of the castles, the Giant's Causeway, the leprechauns, and little people. When her children came along, she wrote lullabies, poems and stories to enchant and entertain them. She hopes that Penelope will entertain beginning readers and adults alike.
