Penelope's Peril
A rattling good yarn - a wicked scientist wants to control the power held by the Magic Folk and use it for his own evil ends. Penelope, equipped with the mysterious - and wayward - power of the pendant, is compelled to help when here three friends Rima, Craggle and Glumdol are captured and their lives are in danger. Years 6 and 7 will respond enthusiastically to this innocent story where good, quite properly, defeats evil, with plenty of thrills on the way.
