The Pencil - Allan Ahlberg

The creators of The Runaway Dinner and Previously team up to imagine the comical world that comes to life when a lonely pencil starts to draw. Illustrations. Clever and suspenseful, a surefire delight. -- Publishers Weekly (starred review) Once a pencil draws a little boy, there's no telling what will come next -- a dog, a cat, a chase (of course), and a paintbrush to color in an ever-expanding group of family and friends. But it's not long before the complaints begin -- This hat looks silly My ears are too big -- until the poor pencil has no choice but to draw . . . an eraser. Oh, no In the hands of Allan Ahlberg and Bruce Ingman, creators of The Runaway Dinner and Previously, can anything but havoc and hilarity ensue?
