Jesse Stuart is a fantastic writer of moral stories for youth. My daughter and I enjoyed reading and
discussing A Penny’s Worth of Character, which is a simple but lovely story about honesty. I love the
descriptions in the book about nature and about the feelings we have when we are both honest and

medium print and full-page black-and-white illustrations every few pages.

The protagonist, Philip Ashton, is well-developed and relatable. His transformation from an ambitious but somewhat naive journalist to someone deeply embroiled in a dangerous quest for truth is compelling. The supporting characters are also well-crafted, adding depth to the narrative.
