Description

A magical crayon sets off a mad-cap, action-packed adventure for a little girl whose drawings start coming to life. Can she harness the crayon's magic to save the day? Jack was seven and Chloe was six. Jack liked his sister, but loved to play tricks . . . So begins this rollicking, rhyming tale that celebrates the power of imagination - with a difference! When Chloe's silvery crayon develops magical powers, it sparks a thrilling chase through a fairytale world - an unbelievable adventure where her drawings spring to life! Can Chloe use all her creativity and inventiveness to rescue her brother and save the day? An adventure from the author of Do Not Enter the Monster Zoo, brought to life by the bestselling illustrator behind The Littlest Bandit and Girls Can Do Anything.
