World Premiere
Penny loves books and has just discovered a new one about cowgirls! With her best friends, Cassandra and Jackie, she’s determined to become the best cowgirl EVER. The problem is she doesn’t have one of the most important things a cowgirl needs: a horse. She’s undeterred from this setback and sets out to the zoo to find a viable replacement.
