Description
When Margarita draws something with the magic pencil, it becomes real! But what will she draw when there is only a little piece of the pencil left?
When Margarita, Daniel and Charlie see a hungry little cat, they decide they have to feed it. Even if that means going into Mrs Crankys yard!
But when she sees them, instead of telling them off, she rewards the children with three very special gifts: a pencil, a sharpener and an eraser.
Margarita starts to draw and something incredible happens! The drawings become real! What will the three children choose to draw? A story of friendship, equality, diversity and inclusion.
