Follow Princess Penelope as she runs through the palace and the palace grounds, including a maze, garden and the royal stables, chasing her naughty runaway kitten - the kitten is all tangled up with wool, which makes a crazy pink glitter trail behind her as she leaps and jumps through the book. Little girls will love the story, the palace scenes, the animals that join in the chase, and best of all following the glitter and the shapes it makes across all the pages: twirls, zig-zags, loop the loops and much more.
Comes with a free audio reading featuring music and using children's voices - accessible anywhere and anytime you're connected to the internet by scanning a QR code on your smartphone or tablet. With sparkly glitter on every page, this tactile treat from a new picture book talent follows Princess Penelope's search for her mischievous kitten. This paperback edition includes a free audio reading.
