This week on What's Poppin' Penny?, we take a nostalgic trip down memory lane with a story that’s close to my heart—Contrary Perry!

I wrote this tale for my Paigie, who, at three years old, was a giggly, spirited little girl with a knack for turning every request into a playful adventure of doing the opposite. Now, 30 years later, my daughter is all grown up, and I’m the proud grandmother of two rambunctious little girls who remind me so much of her and Contrary Perry!

Just like Perry, they’re discovering the joy of doing things their way—and I bet your little Brownstone Buddies will see themselves in this story, too. Get ready for giggles, heartwarming moments, and a dash of nostalgia!

Hi there, Trusted Adult!

The campaign kicks off on November 29th, Black Friday!
