Penny Draws a Team Sport

The fifth book in the humorous, heartfelt, highly illustrated series about a girl who doodles to cope with her anxiety, from #1 New York Times bestselling author Sara Shepard.

When fifth grader Penny Lowry’s school announces an upcoming charity pickleball tournament, she doesn’t know what to think. On the one hand, all her friends are joining the team and she doesn’t want to feel left out. But on the other hand, Penny’s never been particularly athletic. What if it turns out she’s terrible at pickleball? What if she lets her teammates down?

Things get even more stressful when a local news channel announces they’ll be covering the tournament, giving Penny something new to worry about: what if she embarrasses herself on live TV?

It’s all a lot to handle, but luckily Penny has her right hand dog Cosmo, her best friends, and her love of drawing to get her through!

Sara Shepard is the author of the #1 New York Times bestselling series Pretty Little Liars, along with many other novels for young adults and adults. The Penny Draws series is her first one for younger readers.
