This is a collection of short accounts of Penelope's travels, all but the last taking place prior to her English Experiences. They feel like they were written around the time of that first book. The last story takes place ten years after the rest of the series, and is basically a "Where are they now?" Although this book was more disjointed, I was glad to see a return of the humour that I enjoyed so much in the first book. I'm led to suspect that Wiggin's sense of humour started to deteriorate in middle age. Or possibly she was just too tied up with writing Rebecca of Sunnybrook Farm.
