Monroe takes the simple act of a little Prairie Dog named Penelope looking for a little peace in her world and weaves it into a story. Penelope has 'no time to play' with her sister, brother, and niece. She needs to find some peace and a place to think her big thoughts.

That is when the biggest thought she ever had comes into her mind.
