About the Book:

The Pencil - A Delightfully Imaginative Tale!

Celebrate the 15th anniversary of a modern classic with the special edition of "The Pencil."

This playful and witty story by Allan Ahlberg and Bruce Ingman is filled with delightful quirks and explores the extraordinary power of imagination.

Meet Banjo, a whimsical character who comes to life when a pencil sketches him on paper. From that point on, the story takes unexpected turns. As Banjo explores his world, new characters emerge - a dog, a cat, and naturally, an exciting chase ensues. With each new addition, the group of family and friends grows, and the pencil introduces a paintbrush to add vibrant colours to their lives.

However, the tale takes a twist as complaints arise. "This hat looks silly!" and "My ears are too big!" echo through the pages. Faced with discontent, the poor pencil makes a decision that changes everything - it draws a rubber. Uh-oh! What will happen next?

This enchanting story captivated my five-year-old during our holiday. Usually, when he becomes so engrossed in a book, I attempt to steer his attention to another one. However, with "The Pencil," things were different. I happily read this bedtime story day after day, witnessing smiles and laughter from my little one.

With Allan Ahlberg's masterful storytelling and Bruce Ingman's whimsical illustrations, "The Pencil" guarantees havoc and hilarity. This special 15th-anniversary edition features stunning gold foil on its cover and spine, making it a book to share and treasure.

Join Banjo and his ever-expanding circle of friends on an imaginative journey like no other. "The Pencil" is a timeless tale that reminds children, and adults alike, of the limitless possibilities that lie within the realms of their own creativity.
