Welcome to the Combined Story Workbook (CSW)! A book combined with a story and questions at the end of the story for children ages five through nine. Written to entertain but more importantly, to stimulate the child's thinking and reasoning ability, also to encourage academic progress during the most important years of a child's life, the formative years. The Combined Story Workbook was also written to promote safety awareness for children, a book that helps enlighten children to dangers in hopes that they will never become victims of them, by equipping them with one of their most valuable weapons against dangers, knowledge. Peanuts for Penny, the debut of the Combined Story Workbook, is a warm and loving story about three eight-year-old close friends and classmates. When it's discovered that Penny, who loves peanuts, is in need of a kidney transplant. Her two closest friends, Samantha (Sam) and Zack are determined to raise enough money to help their friend Penny get the care she needs. Samantha and Zack come up with a plan to help Penny and her family raise enough money for her kidney transplant, but are told that efforts to help Penny and her family should be left to the adults. However, they don't give up and forge ahead in their efforts to help Penny even though they are very young, Zack keeping in mind the words of his mother that 'Even though he and Sam are young, they have a big heart and sometimes that's all it takes.'"
