The Pencil by Allan Ahlberg
The acclaimed duo behind The Runaway Dinner and Previously imagine the comical world that comes to life when a pencil starts to draw… “A hilarious and utterly enchanting new classic” The Times A special fifteenth anniversary edition of a modern classic. The Pencil is a playful, witty, wonderfully quirky story about the power of imagination. Say hi to Banjo! Once a pencil draws him, there's no telling what will come next – a dog, a cat, a chase (of course), and a paintbrush to colour 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 … a rubber. Oh no! In the hands of Allan Ahlberg and Bruce Ingman, can anything but havoc and hilarity ensue? With gorgeous golden foil on the cover and spine, this edition is one to share and treasure. WINNER OF THE RED HOUSE CHILDREN'S BOOK AWARD SHORLISTED FOR THE ROALD DAHL FUNNY PRIZE SHORLISTED FOR THE UKLA BOOK AWARDWitty story about imagination. * The Bookseller *
