I can still smell the wonderful odor of sharpened pencils, and taste library paste, and hear the end-of-class bell. Those things are imprinted forever, at least for me. Good memories.
Don’t try to sharpen it a second time, Spud. Those things usually have a super short lead. (Love the italic gasp and the word balloon tail wrapping around the pencil, btw )

The question becomes: Can they get Betty back to Spud’s locker without breaking the point? A new adventure begins!

Now, what to write——what do you mean, that’s not the point?

It’s probably a #1 lead, meaning it’s soft and will wear down fast.

Shortly thereafter, retaliatory Russian nukes ruined everyone’s day in the quiet, seaside village.

Love the way the words and balloon wrap around the pencil in embraceable hug.

This isn’t good – no mother around to admonish them NOT to run with that thing!

That was my first thought. Should have gotten the giant crayon, instead. :)

Amelia would do anything to get that giant sharpened novelty pencil away from Spud.

This bliss surely won’t last long—but you’ll always have the memory to cherish, Spud.

Does it looks like the pencil is much shorter ?

She? Not wishing to be too Freudian about this, but it does look more he ..

The pencil is mightier than the sword. Spud wields a tool of power like Thor with his axe.

I like how it simply ended with a victory for Spud.
