Title: Magic pencils...
Product review: Funny, my son and I liked it. Bear goes to town with a magic pencil, makes friends with Cat, saves cat and a variety of other animals from a guarded camp (Animal Control? funny place to find cows, though), and draws an idyllic hillside for these animals to occupy. The illustrations are quirky and unexpected, while the tone of the book is calm, almost somnabulistic. It does seem to have an underlying theme about harm to animals, but it is deeply placed, and my child was much more concerned with the clear "good and evil" parameters he's familiar with from fairy tales.
