Bookroo's summary

Pencil feels pointless with a dull tip, and only a sharpener can save the day. Joined by her cautious friend Eraser, they brave the classroom's vast terrain, dodge the janitor, and race against time before their human, Stella, returns. Will they succeed in their quest and restore Pencil's point?

From the publisher

Fans of Narwhal and Jelly & Pizza and Taco, prepare to meet your new favorite duo! This hilarious new early-reader graphic novel series follows the adventures of two best friend school supplies: Pencil and Eraser! Pencil is a joyous adventure seeker and Eraser is a cautious curmudgeon. And when their human person Stella isn’t watching, these two unlikely friends go on all sorts of adventures! It’s the start of a new school year, and Pencil and Eraser are ready for anything. Except when Pencil notices her point has dulled. That’s never happened before and she feels…pointless. Stella can’t write with a dull pencil. So what can Pencil do? The only answer is to leave the comfort of their desk behind and venture out to find a sharpener. But if Pencil is going on an adventure, she’ll need to bring her (reluctant) bestie Eraser along for the ride. Together they’ll have to traverse the classroom, scale a mountain-sized desk, enter uncharted territory of the school hallway, and avoid being caught by the janitor. Can Pencil and Eraser manage all that before Stella and her classmates return from recess?
