Back in a sharp new edition, this oh-so-punny friendship story is making its mark.Pencil and his boy Jackson are a great pair: they draw, they sketch, they scribble. But then Jackson gets Tablet and Pencil finds himself dumped in the dreaded junk drawer; he just cant compete with Tablets videos, games, and movies. How will Pencil ever reclaim Jacksons attention? With the help of some new pun-loving junk-drawer friends (and a drooling, pencil-chomping dog), Pencil sketches out a plan to draw Jackson back into their friendship.A former educator whose first book was shortlisted for a Crystal Kite award, author Ann Ingalls uses kid-friendly puns and an upbeat tone in this story that celebrates friendship, collaboration, and unplugged fun. Buoyed by award-winning artist Dean Griffiths always-exuberant illustrations, Pencil: A Story with a Point is a gentle reminder that technology is no match for imagination.
