Stubby, the Magic Pencil
by Heather Hobson
Rachel breaks her pencil during a test. Her teacher hands her a short pencil with gnaw marks to use. Disgusted, Rachel attempts to rid herself of the pencil, but it keeps returning. She soon discovers it possesses a talent she does not have: the ability to tell stories.
As Rachel holds the pencil, and it writes, the pencil reveals a tale about a kidnapped unicorn. The unicorn's friend, Prince Jacob, sets out to rescue the unicorn. Jacob convinces the wizard-kidnapper to take him on as an apprentice. While working for the wizard, Jacob discovers the horrible truth: his unicorn friend has been transformed and sent to another world.
This delightful tale is written for children aged seven to eleven and deals with the themes of self-esteem and loyalty.
Heather Hobson has dedicated the past twenty-five years to developing her writing, especially The Conrad Chronicles. She possess a BA in history from the University of San Francisco and a teaching credential through Mills College. Her publishing credits include The Conrad Chronicles: Revolt, Callings: Tales of the Conrads of Karna and many short stories, as well as poetry. She is a member of the Siskiyou County Writer’s Club. Stubby, the Magic Pencil is her first children’s book.
Ms. Hobson currently resides in the Pacific Northwest with her husband and two wonderful dogs,
Maggie and Boomer.
Michelle Hays of Willow Creek is the cover artist for this book. She is a graduate of Trinity High School in Weaverville and has taken art classes from the Art Institute of Portland, Oregon.
Soon it will be available for purchase through Amazon.com and by order through book stores.
