Pretty Penny

Pretty Penny is a story of self-identification and discovery of self-worth as told by a newly minted penny. In the process of comparing itself to other coins, in humorous rhyme, it explores the issues of its own value, purpose, and usefulness in society.

As it overhears a conversation between a father and son, it gains knowledge and self-confidence about its role and the service that it would provide.

The story should serve as a metaphor for our own voyages of discovery from childhood to maturity and the contribution we each can make to the world around us.
