Description
Twelve-year-old Audrey Abbott has always dreamed of becoming a writer. But with her father's failing health and the family's financial struggles, it seems like there's no room for such a fantasy. That is, until she meets a mysterious old woman who seems to understand her in a way that few others do. The old woman gives Audrey a peculiar bronze pen, telling her to use it wisely and with good purpose. To Audrey's surprise, the pen proves to be perfect for writing her stories. But as she writes, strange things start happening - like when Beowulf, her dog, seems to speak to her, or when there's a bumping noise under her bed at night. As Audrey discovers that whatever she writes with the pen comes true, she begins to wonder if it's a gift or a curse. Can she learn to control the power of the pen and use it to save her father's life?
