In this captivating story, Penny Pangolin is all aflutter with excitement: her friend Vin is coming to visit! Determined to make his arrival unforgettable, she decides there's no better way than with her mom's famous lemon-ant cake. But when the cake is stolen by a jealous neighbor, Penny must decide between what she feels is deserved, and what is right.
The story opens on Penny's birthday, where instead of the pet she's been dreaming of, she receives... a plant. Though it isn't the pet she asked for, Penny's big heart leads her to cherish her new green friend.
Yet, despite her devotion, the quiet plant just can't be the lovable companion that a pet would. As Penny contemplates the perfect pet, she encounters a distressed "bearcat"―actually a red panda cub―leading to an adventure that teaches her about empathy, wildlife, and the joyous unpredictability of friendship.
The annual village festival is on! Penny's friend Vin, a fellow pangolin, is visiting just in time for the festivities.
But amidst the fun and games, Penny accidentally eats something that makes pangolins sick. With her scales itchy and her stomach in knots, it's up to Vin to whip up a batch of rock soup—a pangolin delicacy essential for their digestion—to soothe her tummy and lift her spirits.
When Penny steps in to defend her friend Edith against a school bully, she quickly finds herself his new target! Penny must navigate the rocky path of dealing with a bully without becoming one herself. Themes of friendship, forgiveness, anger management, and seeing other points of view.
