Pencil & Eraser: New Friends Rule!

In the third book of this hilarious early-reader graphic novel series, Pencil makes a new friend and Eraser learns that three can be a crowd—in the best possible way. Pencil and Eraser are joined by Ruler, a straight-talking newcomer who helps keep lines neat as the trio dives into a classroom mischief when a green crayon goes missing. The friends’ wacky ideas collide with bursts of color and humor as they chase clues, all while learning to work as a team. Eraser’s steady voice of reason keeps the trio on track, even as Stella and the other classmates return from lunch to complicate their plan. Written and illustrated by Jenny Alvarado, this 80-page hardcover delivers bright, dynamic art and accessible storytelling for emerging readers. It’s the latest entry in the Pencil & Eraser series, continuing the friendly, goofy humor and warm messages about friendship and collaboration.
