In a world where imagination breathes life into possibility, and love knows no bounds, there exists a woman who is both part of the storybook and the world beyond its pages—Grandma Penny. Born Penny Brown, but known far and wide by the name she cherishes most, Grandma Penny is the heartbeat of The Infinitely Limitless Books of Wonder. Her name alone sparks a sense of warmth and safety, as if her arms could wrap around the world and make it feel at home.

Though she walks with the grace of time and the wisdom of years, there is a light in her eyes that dances like fireflies in twilight—a quiet magic that follows her wherever she goes. She is not a character born of fiction, but rather a living legend of kindness, whose love has mended hearts and lifted spirits for generations. With every word she speaks, every hand she holds, and every story she listens to, Grandma Penny reminds us that true wonder lives in acts of care.

At The Infinitely Limitless Books of Wonder, Grandma Penny holds the honored role of Care Coordinator and Heart of Hospitality. When the organization hosts events filled with hope, healing, and celebration, she tends lovingly to those who require special attention—many of them sponsors or guests with physical limitations. She floats through rooms like a soft melody, ensuring that no one feels forgotten or unseen. Her care is never clinical—it is enchanted, as though love itself had taken form and chosen her hands to move through.

But even outside the spotlight, Grandma Penny weaves her magic. In the quiet corners of her day, she crafts Baskets of Love for the Bear Hug Express, each one delicately filled with joy, comfort, and bits of wonder. They are not just gifts—they are stories told through ribbons, sweets, and keepsakes, each basket touched by her hands and her heart. She supports the mission in every way she can, never asking for recognition, always giving more than expected.

Her wisdom is a lantern that lights the path of the organization. Grandma Penny shares gentle advice and bright ideas, offering suggestions that ripple into lasting impact. Her joy is contagious, her encouragement unwavering, and her perspective rooted in deep love for humanity. She doesn’t just help build the mission—she helps the mission believe in itself.

And woven into the fabric of her story is a love beyond measure: her bond with her son, Justin T. Brown, the founder of The Infinitely Limitless Books of Wonder. Their connection is like stardust and thread—unbreakable and ever-glowing. She has been his nurturer, his encourager, his dream defender. She stood beside him as he imagined a world where stories bring healing and wonder, and now she walks with him as that world becomes real.

To the children we sponsor, Grandma Penny is not just a figure of care—she is their real-life fairy god-grandmother. She laughs with them, listens to them, and assures them they are deeply loved. In her presence, every child feels magical, as if they’ve been written into the most beautiful part of a story. She represents a timeless truth: that no matter your age or ability, you deserve to be cherished.

So when you hear the name Grandma Penny, know that you’re hearing more than just a name. You’re hearing the echo of lullabies, the whisper of pages turning, the rustle of blankets tucked in with care. You’re hearing the heartbeat of an entire movement built on limitless love.
