That’s because the humour in this book is of the wonderful ‘laugh-out-loud’ variety. It’s also balanced by some very insightful writing that pins the angst of those of us who have some neuroses, or who recognise neurotic behaviour, to the wall, but in a gentle way. Penelope’s struggles with school, friends, failure, success and life in general are of the variety that we can all recognise and relate to. The supporting characters are also endearing, especially her Grandpa with his quiet wisdom and guidance. The black and white illustrations, and occasional interesting fonts, added to the fun of reading this book. Highly recommended.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Booklify","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51797316436288,"sku":"NEW BOOKS - 025","price":799.0,"currency_code":"PKR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0941\/8991\/2384\/files\/WhatsAppImage2026-04-15at9.12.19PM_1.jpg?v=1776349522","url":"https:\/\/booklify.pk\/products\/the-truly-terrible-mistake","provider":"Booklify","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
