Sam never did his maths homework. At home, his father was too busy to help him. So, most days, he would end up going to school without doing the homework and being severely scolded by the teacher. One day, Sam was exploring his grandpa’s attic when he found something interesting. It was a pencil with the head of a tiger. At home, Sam was sitting with his maths homework, when he remembered the pencil. He removed it from his pocket and started writing with it. Soon, he fell asleep. The next day as usual, Sam was expecting his teacher to scold him when instead she started praising him for doing his homework so neatly. Shocked, Sam realised while he fell asleep, the tiger pencil had completed his homework. That day, the pencil spoke to Sam, “I will help you with maths, but you have to study.” Soon, with the help of the pencil, Sam became good at maths.
