Please join us for a special storytime with Penelope Ng Pack.

Penelope proudly represented the Aloha State at the Miss America Competition in Atlantic City this past September and won the Miss America Women in Business Award and a coveted Non-Finalist Award for her vocal performance.

Penelope is passionate about her social impact initiative Page by Page: Helping Kids Read to Succeed, which brings awareness to the importance of early childhood literacy. Penelope has adored the Harry Potter series ever since her dad started reading it to her when she was a little girl, which sparked her love of reading. Penelope was enthusiastic to partner with the Hawaii State Public Library System and the Friends of the Library of Hawaii as a reading role model through her platform.
