Mrs. P’s Kathy Kinney Talks About a Very Special New Book

A very young new author, Ivy Exum, has her brand new story posted on the special free reading site Mrs P (www.mrsp.com). 

Exum is only 5 years old but she has written a wonderful new story called “The Peanut Butter and Jelly Hotdog” that offers the unique perspective of bullies from a child’s point of view.

“Adults can talk around a problem for years and never reach a conclusion,” said actress Kathy Kinney (The Drew Carey Show), who stars as Mrs. P and co-created the website. “But this 5-year-old kid came up with a short, simple story that cuts to the core and says the best way to deal with a bully is with humor and love. How great is that?”
