Book Description

This award-winning picture book dream team has reunited for the perfect ode to students everywhere

Just in time for the back-to-school season, this imaginative story captures every kid's wildest dream-homework that does itself!
When Tony falls asleep without finishing his homework, his unruly school tools come to life to get the job done. Pencil and Pen get the story started, along with Eraser, but when Fountain Pen joins in, all ink breaks loose! A little creativity goes a long way, as Tony's homework turns into a wacky tale about the Planet Splotch. Tony might not be able to hand in this particular assignment, but it deserves an A+ for originality.

“A simple but amusing winner.”—Booklist

“The plotline is amusing as the characters interact, but it’s Egielski’s retro-style illustrations that steal the show…The pictures are rich in detail and energy, and children will return to the story many times to enjoy them.”—School Library Journal

“Funny, spirited dialogue.” – The Horn Book
