Life of a Pencil.

I’m Ralphie the pencil.  I was born in Australia and I am owned by Shyler Rasquinho. She is one of my best friends.  I love writing – that’s my hobby.

My favourite place to go to is class because I meet so many new people and they use me. My favourite people are people with soft hands.  It feels very comfortable. I love to eat rubbers.  It is like my treat.  If I am good, no sharpening is needed and by the way I have only one leg.My best friends are Shyler, Mary, Bob and Austin.  Pens are very mean to me but I love humans.

One day, it was the first day of school and I was nervous but Shyler told me there is nothing to be scared of.  I was scared that my point might come off and Shyler said if it does, she could always sharpen me and I stopped being scared.  That was the end of it. I continue to live a happy life with my best friend, Shyler.

An essay written by my niece Shyler which I found fascinating.  Such imagination  …!  Have a hunch she will be a writer pretty soon 🙂
