Bookroo's summary

Penny faces a dilemma when invited to a sleepover under the stars—no pets allowed! Determined to bring her beloved dog Jelly, she embarks on a creative quest to find the perfect substitute. From paper to yarn, nothing seems right. Can Penny's ingenuity and heart find a way to include Jelly in the fun? Join Penny and Jelly on this imaginative adventure where friendship and creativity shine.

From the publisher

In this picture-book companion to Penny & Jelly: The School Show, Penny is invited to a slumber-under-the-stars sleepover! But there’s one small detail that derails the dynamic kid-dog duo: no pets allowed. Penny and Jelly have to think quick–if the real Jelly can’t go, then maybe a pretend Jelly can! A paper Jelly? Too rough. A yarn Jelly? Too soft. Jelly after Jelly just doesn’t work. But with a little creativity and a lot of heart, Penny figures out how to go to the sleepover–and bring Jelly along with her.
