But instead, he's stuck in the real world, where he has an annoying little brother, a super-weird teacher ... and everyone says he's a total dweeb. Then one day, he discovers an oversized, glowing pencil on a school trip to the local toxic waste dump. He starts sketching and finds that he can redraw reality.

4.5
Andy is a geek or a dweeb, or whatever you want to call him. He is not cool. Mona the new girl is super cool. Andy wants to be her friend. And she turns out to not want him as a friend, but she does talk back to the bullies, and holds her own, and they have a mutual understanding, which is kind of like friendship.Andy likes to draw, so he takes his pencil with him to Fallout Island, which is a school field trip, which seems rather odd, but that's where his teacher wants them to go, so they do.And that's how he gets his super pencil. His pencil of destiny. The rest of the book is how the pencil has magic powers, that anything you draw with it becomes real for ten minutes.Hilarity follows soon after, of course.Fun story, and I presume the first in a series.Thanks to Netgalley for making this book available for an honest review
