Costume Craziness

Alex is your average fourth grader who loves to draw. One day, Alex's father, an archaeologist, returns home from a dig in a distant country. Alex finds an old wooden pencil in his dad's bag and uses it to finish his homework. But, this pencil has mystical powers and suddenly his drawings come to life! Alex tries desperately to return the pencil to his father, but it keeps falling into other children's hands. Will Alex ever get it back where it can be kept safe under lock and key?

In the Mystical Pencil's second adventure, Alex woke up from the Renaissance nightmare and the Mystical Pencil was nowhere to be found. Until he gets to school that is! There he discovers Sara has found the pencil and is using it to draw costumes and sets for the school play. She doesn't believe Alex's warnings until it is too late! Can Alex and Sara work together to take the farm out of the school and back onstage?
