This book was brand new for used description!!! Great book for a 6 year old!!! Very happy with this company!!!
5.0 out of 5 stars Imaginative book
Who knew a pencil and eraser could lead to this much drama! The story builds nicely. Crisp and uncluttered, the illustrations are clever. Loved the use of white space, and its destruction of course.

Cute story and my granddaughter loves it! Favorite book! She is 6.
5.0 out of 5 stars It’s a cute book for kids
This is the story of an eraser who wants everything to be nice and neat and just so. Along comes pencil who messes with his “perfection.” I bought this book for my perfectionist artist daughter to show her that sometimes messy can be fun too. Another cute story along these same lines is A Perfectly Messed Up Story (https://www.Bolo.com/Perfectly-Messed-Up-Story-Patrick-McDonnell/dp/0316222585)
4.0 out of 5 stars Playful
An eraser wants to keep everything neat and clean on the pages of this picture book, but a playful pencil has other ideas. The pencil draws mocking images of the eraser, which are then erased. But the scribbles become a whirlwind that knock him into pages of even darker scribbles and marching pencils. The eraser escapes into a deep dark forest of pencil-drawn trees that become a solid darkness. Unable to fix all of the pencil marks, eraser discovers his own playful side and draws his way out onto a clean page. Though now he just might enjoy a bit of mess instead.In his debut picture book, Amato demonstrates a real sense of play. The eraser character is tightly wound and rather obsessive and makes a great foil for the silliness of the pencil. The book has a great story arc that works well and makes a compelling and interesting tale. Children will enjoy both of the characters, since even the eraser gets in on the fun by the end of the book and leaves his complaints behind. The illustrations are particularly effective with both the pencil and eraser popping visually from the drawn backgrounds. Particularly funny is when eraser turns his back to the reader and one can see the butt print from his fall.A great sense of humor and playfulness make this one worth sharing. Appropriate for ages 3-5.
5.0 out of 5 stars Perfect book for teaching students!
Perfect is a great addition for read aloud! I plan to use it for writing workshop mini lessons on the importance of revision and editing while remembering the importance of creativity and imagination. It can help students think about perspective and diversity. Perfect for every classroom!
5.0 out of 5 stars Amazing illustrations and important message
This is a really great picture book- especially for children that struggle with perfectionism and/or fear of making mistakes. I love the message- to embrace your creative side. Max Amato’s illustrations are so cool and they make you feel like you are taking in an animated journey. Highly recommend!
5.0 out of 5 stars Cute. And creative.
My 7-year-old insists on getting it because of its interesting subject and illustration style, not the text. So a good book with artistic appeal:)
