Mr. Scribble Beast

Mr. Scribble Beast is a beautifully illustrated middle-grade fantasy about forgotten creations, abandoned ideas, and the quiet courage it takes to return to the parts of yourself you almost left behind.

Hazel has always felt different. While other kids make neat little projects that fit neatly on classroom tables, Hazel builds enormous inventions from scraps, sketches strange ideas across every page she can find, and fills her attic treehouse with creations nobody else seems to understand.

But after a humiliating disaster during a school presentation, Hazel decides she is done creating forever.

Then, late one night, something begins moving in the attic above her room.

Hidden behind the walls of her treehouse, Hazel discovers a mysterious world unlike anything she has ever seen. Notebook-paper streets stretch endlessly beneath penciled skies. Strange unfinished inventions line the sidewalks. Forgotten drawings, broken toys, abandoned creatures, and discarded ideas wait quietly in the shadows for someone to remember them.

There, Hazel meets a lonely creature made entirely from tangled scribbles and charcoal lines: Mr. Scribble Beast.

As the two wander through the hidden city together, Hazel slowly begins repairing the things nobody came back for. And in the process, she starts to understand something important: imperfect things can still matter, unfinished stories are not always over, and some things are worth returning to.

Filled with atmospheric illustrations, emotional storytelling, and literary fantasy charm, Mr. Scribble Beast is a heartfelt story about creativity, self-worth, resilience, and finding beauty in the things the world almost forgot.

Perfect for readers who love imaginative, emotionally rich stories with whimsical worlds and meaningful themes.
