One Day with Miss Penderly

A charming and spellbinding Middle-Grade fantasy by booktuber R.J. Valencia aka BookishlyRichie!

Ruby Wilt has a well-known reputation for being a walking sack of bad luck and all she wants is to live a normal life and not have everyone so scared of her all the time. When she discovers an ad in the newspaper for an assistant to the legendary Miss Isadora Penderly, Ruby sees it as the perfect opportunity to turn her luck around. But when Ruby walks into Miss Penderly’s shop, she gets more than she could ever bargain for.

Just moments after being hired, a little girl walks into the shop with a mysterious white cat and steals Miss Penderly’s prized magical umbrella right out from under Ruby’s nose. With only one day to retrieve it before disaster strikes the city of Plumwick, Ruby and Miss Penderly strike up a plan to find the girl, the cat, and the umbrella.

Joined by a street-smart boy named Charlie, and a dapper talking pigeon with a top hat, they take on the city to find Miss Penderly’s umbrella before it’s too late.
