About this title

Synopsis

Penelope Prime has a unique gift - but when she chooses not to use it, she loses herself and her world grows dark. Can Penelope rediscover her imaginative abilities before it's too late?

Penelope Prime has the gift of rhyme. She invents rhymes from every type of word! Connected to herself, her environment, and the forces of infinite intelligence, Penelope creates colorful works of art that transform the world into a beautiful place.

But as much as she loves creating rhymes from her cozy treehouse, Penelope grows discontent and wonders if she can get more with her gift: money, fame, and stuff. To realize her new dreams, she needs to find a way that her rhymes can be manufactured and sold, so she opens a factory.

The factory brings great sales, but she has trouble keeping up with the demand until she comes up with another idea. She'll put a rhyming machine to work!

The machine works remarkably well - so well that Penelope soon relies on it completely and forgets about the inner depths of her mind. Instead of creating rhymes, Penelope lets the electronics take charge while she lounges by the pool all day, becoming increasingly distracted and disconnected from what makes her special.

Everything seems fine until her machine suddenly breaks and the world starts to grow dark. Will the rhymes in her incredible mind come back, or is the magic of rhyme gone for good?

Penelope Prime, Inventor of Rhyme is an inspiring story about a child who learns the value of making the most of her gift, reinforcing how every mind has the potential to make the world better. We just need to tune in, tap in, and USE IT!
