It's been a crazy day,
Don't you wish you could unwind?
A way to do just that,
Within this book you'll find.

A boss you long to fire,
The car that up and died.
A day that went from bad to worse,
No matter how you tried.

Life seems like a handful,
It's challenges unique.
As your day comes to a close,
This book I hope you'll seek.

A way to unravel,
The knots inside your mind.
As you get lost within this book,
Peace I hope you'll find.

"I have designed ‘Pencil Pleasures' in the hopes that I might help the reader collect their thoughts and hold them captive as relief from the everyday pressures and stresses of life are sought. You could even discover the artist in you that no one ever knew existed. It won't matter if you are enjoying the left or right handed version of ‘Pencil Pleasures' for it is destined to provide mind mellowing entertainment for all who would seek after it."

"Lee has taken a lot of time and energy to help kids and adults to sit down and have some quiet time - to un-stress. This is a fun way of "drawing" and feeling good about the outcome. I left my book out on the coffee table and my grandkids picked it up and began drawing! They did a great job! You'll enjoy becoming a great artist with the help of his great book!"

"Bravo! To the author for recognizing the need for left handed books, very innovative.  I saw this book as a challenge for Middle School students when they finished their work early. It provides spatial recognition, eye hand coordination and sequencing. Students love to work on these every chance they get!"
