About this listen
"This is no ordinary pencil," says the cat sitting on the end of nine-year-old Daniel's bed. "It's magic."
Everything Daniel draws with his pencil - flying dragons, Octobears, and pizza-loving aliens from the planet Beezo - comes to life. It's pretty awesome until the pencil draws a line between Daniel and his best (and only) friend Annie.
Come along with Daniel and his fantastic creatures on this fun-for-the-whole-family journey as he discovers that friendship is the greatest magic of all.

An incredible adventure is about to begin!

Somewhere on the frontier between thought and reality exists the Discworld, a parallel time and place that might sound and smell very much like our own, but which looks completely different. Particularly as it’s carried though space on the back of a giant turtle (sex unknown). It plays by different rules. But then, some things are the same everywhere. The Disc’s very existence is about to be threatened by a strange new blight: the world’s first tourist, upon whose survival rests the peace and prosperity of the land.

Discovered in the forests of Ashton Place, the Incorrigibles are no ordinary children: Alexander keeps his siblings in line with gentle nips; Cassiopeia has a bark that is (usually) worse than her bite; and Beowulf is alarmingly adept at chasing squirrels.

One of the Cutest Children's Stories I've Heard
DANIEL THE DRAW-ER was incredibly cute with adorable characters. He's actually an artist who'd drawn a white cat that came to life and began talking to him. The cat's name was Whiskers and he told Daniel that his pencil was magic. In fact all his characters had come to life in this incredibly cute story. There's also something to be learned here about friendship.
S. J. HENDERSON is a terrific children's author. I love listening to children's books and this one was especially good combined with the outstanding narration by JAY PRICHARD.
His voice makes the characters come to life and almost leap right from the story. His spectacular vocal skills made this a fun listen. I know my grandchildren will love this. It was attention holding and each character stood out.

Great book for all ages!
My daughter has been obsessed with the Harry Potter audio books- she listened to nothing else, until recently. She has moved Daniel the Drawer to the top of her list and has had it on repeat for about the last week. She has been talking about everything she would draw if she had Daniel's pencil and encouraging her friends to read or listen to Daniel. I love how her imagination has been sparked. My daughter is almost 11 but her 6 year old brother and 14 year old brother also really enjoyed the book. Note: to put any book in the same sentence as Harry Potter is the highest praise I can give a book!

Such a fun story!
What did you love best about Daniel the Draw-er?
The story was interesting enough for me (an adult) to enjoy thoroughly including a few laugh out loud moments but (I'm assuming) appealing enough for the kid set - a robot that makes pizzas AND does math? Who doesn't want one of those?
What did you like best about this story?
I like the pure, crazy-pants imagination of Daniel and how he learned both about what it means to be a friend AND how what you wish for (or draw) might not always turn out exactly as you'd thought (Super Amazing Pants?).
What does Jay Prichard bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?
I really enjoyed the voice Jay brought to Daniel's various drawings, particularly Whiskers and SAP.
Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?
I really like the description of Daniel's and Annie's friendship, both the breaking and repairing.
Any additional comments?
This book was a lot of fun and would be a great road trip story for anyone with kids five and up. It's engaging enough to interest the young 'uns and fun enough that even the adults will enjoy it.

Love the story!
Would you consider the audio edition of Daniel the Draw-er to be better than the print version?
I read the printed version before I enjoyed the audio edition of Daniel the Draw-er. The audio version put a different twist on the characters that I had developed in my head. The reader did a good job with the different characters throughout this book.
Who was your favorite character and why?
I loved Daniel. Daniel seemed content with having one friend and his world of make believe. We all need to learn a lesson from him. If we have one good friend, we have everything!
Have you listened to any of Jay Prichard’s other performances before? How does this one compare?
I have never listed to Jay Prichard before. It took me a while to get used to his reading style. It is possible, that because I have not listened to a children's book in a few years, I was thrown off by the simplicity of his monologue. He seemed to be reading to very young children. As the story went on, I got used to his performance.
Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?
I giggled over many parts of the book. Having three sons, I could see the happiness, disappointments and excitement that Daniel expressed. He is a very likable boy.
Any additional comments?
I look forward to many more adventures with Daniel!!

Four Kids - Four Thumbs Up
What made the experience of listening to Daniel the Draw-er the most enjoyable?
We listened to Daniel the Draw-er while on a short car trip. My kids (ages 4, 6, 9, 11) were enthralled the entire time. There was a lot of giggling going on in the car. As an adult, I enjoyed the book because of some of the funny references my kids might not have caught. The author did an excellent job of bringing Daniel and his friends to life. I hope there's a sequel!
Who was your favorite character and why?
DANIEL - loved his inner dialogue

Enjoyable Listening for Youngsters
Where does Daniel the Draw-er rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?
Daniel the Draw-er is actually the first audiobook I've listened to on Audible, and I enjoyed it. The book seemed a wee bit long to me. If I were a young person, I think I would have loved it and been sorry the story ended.
What other book might you compare Daniel the Draw-er to and why?
I can't think of any recent books I've read to compare this book to, but I was reminded of the great enjoyment I got from listening to my teachers read books in class. It was always a welcomed break from the usual classroom fare. Daniel the Draw-er kept me on my toes. I found the story quite imaginative and delightfully detailed.
Have you listened to any of Jay Prichard’s other performances before? How does this one compare?
This is the first time I've heard Jay Prichard's performance. I feel pleased by his reading of the book and the portrayal of the characters. His reading seemed natural and pleasant to me, not at all distracting.

a fun read!
Any additional comments?
I really enjoyed listening to this one in the car with my toddler and he seemed to enjoy it too. I haven't read/listened to a lot of middle grade books yet but this will be one I come back to with my son because it's so inventive. The narrator was great, captured the voice well and Daniel especially is wonderful!
