"A fun, engaging, inspiring read"
- Randye Kaye, author of Ben Behind His Voices

A Penny's Worth is motivational women's fiction - a truly inspirational story. Rich, wise, but above all fun and fast-paced.

No-one would argue that a penny is a small amount of change. Penny Marins figured out that her mother had named her after this humble coin for a reason: she would never amount to much. Or so her mother decided.

Penny always knew she had been short changed right from the start.

Already in her late thirties, Penny is lonely and unhappy - having fulfilled her mother's self-fulfilling prophecy. She wants to change her life but lacks the confidence to do so. She longs for friends, for a life that doesn't consist of wiping runny noses at the local elementary school, and walking her dog Winston with a neighbour she can't stand.

But then, she takes control... she loses the awful neighbour. This one small step triggers a change of events, and Penny begins to experience the life she has longed for. Most importantly she stops listening to anyone who tells her she can't do it. She grows to understand that Penny is worth so much more than that.

A Penny's Worth is a highly rewarding story of how one person realises her full potential, and takes bold steps toward the happiness she deserves.
