The Pencil

By Allan Ahlberg

Illustrated by Bruce Ingman

When a pencil draws a rubber, a battle of wits ensues!

A pencil draws a boy, a dog, a cat and a whole world for them to play in. Then the pencil draws a brush, and the brush adds colour to everything. Everyone is very happy, until the pencil draws a rubber … which begins rubbing everything out!
