Description
The Magic Pencil, a powerful novel for young adults, is the story of Malcolm Bakersfield and the star of his latest and greatest dream, Nia Stellar.
Nia is "the new girl" at Gillespie School. Malcolm quickly notices she's definitely different from all of the other kids he knows.
Malcolm becomes as mystified as Nia is mysterious.
Many wonderful things continue to happen with Nia on the scene. She challenges Malc to be better than his best and he soon discovers amazing things about himself and the world!
We join Malcolm in his quest to discover the secret to the power of the pencil! And we'll uncover hidden powers within ourselves, along the way.
The Magic Pencil is also for the young at heart and is appreciated by all ages. It is the only book explaining from a young African American boy's viewpoint, that everyone speaks differently depending on their present audience and situation.
The book was written especially to attract "uninspired readers" and guide them toward improving literacy, self-esteem and problem solving. There are many ways to teach and everyone must do their part. The author believes we should not be aiming toward producing "cookie cut" children because one size DOES NOT fit all! But we can be about tailoring toward their varying needs as a COMMUNITY.
The Magic Pencil provides suggestions and effective strategies for positive results in an "edutaining" way!

I have no control over what books are shown on the pages featuring my books for youth. "Urban" literature has come to mean adult reading that leans toward writing I feel is not the type I would suggest toward a young audience. A lot of it seems to have no real value other than getting some youth more interested in reading.
