Little Markie

by Cindy North

Overview

Are the adventures over for this tiny pencil? "No one wants a little pencil that's all used up!" jeered the new pencils. Little Markie sadly wonders if the new pencils are right. Are my adventures over? he worries. Do I belong in the trash can? Little Markie is the smallest pencil in the classroom. He's been sharpened many, many times, and he's so small, he can hardly be seen so far down in the pencil cup. Students always seem to choose the brand-new pencils, looking tall and proud with nice fresh erasers. Standing as tall as possible, Little Markie gathers his courage and confronts the bullies. This lovable little pencil may be short, but he's still full of BIG ideas!
