The Pencil

Once there was a pencil, a lonely little pencil, and nothing else." One day, that little pencil begins to draw-first a boy, then a dog, then a cat-and an entire world slowly emerges. But the pencil's drawings have complaints: "This hat looks silly," one person says; "My ears are too big," says another. So the pencil adds . . . an eraser. Soon, however, the eraser is rubbing out everything in sight-and the pencil, to save its world, must figure out how to erase the eraser. Full-color art.
