So Pencil went up to him. He told him he knew his name was Glue Stick, and told him he had his diary and he knew what he had done, because the glue stick trapped him twice! and he asked him why!

Glue Stick said it was because he did not want him to get to the ruler of Pencil-vania.

“Why?” asked Pencil.

“Because he’s dangerous,” said Glue Stick. “I just wanted to protect you.”

“Oh,” said Pencil.

So he tried to buy a Lego set and then headed to the door, but he realised again that he had no money. But when he tried the door, he found out he was locked in. There was no escape, just a window. So he went to the window, opened it and jumped out and fell into a bunch of mashed potatoes and then he turned into a baby chick and clapped his fluffy hands and then tomato sauce fell on his head and cheese sprinkled on his toes and he got a free broccoli hat.

It was extremely weird. And pigeons were playing guitar and Pencil thought, “This must be a dream,” but it was really clear, but it was a dream, so he kept on walking but then he heard a bunch of random words like “cranberry”, “pancakes” and “can-opener”, so he ran to see where the words were coming from.

It was a notebook collecting words so Pencil asked, “Why are you collecting words?”

“Because that is my job,” Notebook replied.

“Oh, OK,” said Pencil.  “That’s very intriguing.”

“Ahh. ‘Intriguing.’ I hadn’t thought of that one yet,” said Notebook, taking note.

So Pencil walked away.
