"Rating: E...Through the use of personification, Ann Ingalls has created an entertaining and engaging book that is carefree, engaging and certainly a winner for young readers to enjoy....Dean Griffiths' vibrant illustrations are cheerful, bright, and add to the humor in the story....Pencil: A Story With a Point is a perfect story to have readers enjoying a big belly laugh! Libraries and classrooms will certainly be filled with giggling children when this book is read during story-time read-alouds."--Resource Links

"Pencil is playful with language and we never got tired of the puns...And while this indeed a pencil versus tablet story for our screen saturated age, it's also more interesting than just that...[A] warm and humorous book which demonstrates that a story with a point is not necessarily a bad thing. It's all in the delivery, and this one is done right."--Pickle Me This
