Bookroo's summary

Penelope loves books and is the perfect student-librarian, except for one thing—her booming voice. As bookcases tremble and the ground shakes, she must prove she belongs in the library. Can Penelope stay true to herself and find her place without quieting down? Discover how a little librarian with a big voice navigates her world in this delightful tale.

From the publisher

A little librarian with a larger-than-life voice finds her place in this sweet and uproarious picture book about being true to yourself–no shushing required! Penelope is perfect for the job of student-librarian. Friendly? Check. Helpful? Check. Book lover? Check. There’s just one snag. Penelope is…LOUD. Bookcases may topple and the ground may quake at the sound of her voice, but Penelope is determined to prove she’s perfect for the job and stay true to herself. Can a little librarian with a big voice find a place where she belongs?
