Description
Ten-year-old Norma Jean is now living in a countryside orphanage after losing her beloved Papa. Before grandfather passed away, he and Norma Jean would sit for hours having wonderful conversations about the life they shared together. “A Penny for Your Thoughts!” Papa would say to his creative, imaginative granddaughter. Then he would drop a shiny penny in her hand. Norma Jean learned from her grandfather just how valuable her thoughts were.
To fill the void in her life after her beloved grandfather passed away, Norma Jean would stand upon a tree stump in the backyard of the countryside orphanage and begin sharing her imaginative tall tales with the other orphans. “A Penny for My Thoughts!” Norma Jean would persuasively say while holding out her hand for shiny coins. Delighted in hearing her fabulous fantasies about a cow she had named Penny, the other orphaned children would drop shiny coins in Norma Jean’s hand. She was quite the little entrepreneur and never failed to deliver an adventurous or suspenseful story which contained an element of surprise and a moral lesson to last a lifetime. Each story she shared involved her favorite cow she had named Penny. Soon, the children were growing just as fond of Norma Jean’s imaginative character named “Penny the Cow,” the main character in each story.
