Crayon Crowns and Fairy Frowns
Ursula Jackson is a bold, competitive girl who leads with her heart-and a pencil that never quite listens to her hand. Her drawings? Stick figures with uneven lines and clumsy shapes, bursting with imagination but never quite landing on the page the way she sees them in her mind. Still, Ursula loves to draw.
When the school announces a drawing competition, she throws herself into it-impulsively, of course. But she's not the only one aiming for the prize. Uminathi Irvin, the most popular girl in school with an ironclad grip on her social circle, signs up too. Her artistic style? Loud, chaotic, and somehow just as questionable as Ursula's. The stakes are high, and the rivalry turns personal fast.
Between hallway standoffs, whispered gossip, and a suspicious act of sabotage, Ursula finds unexpected help from her sarcastic classmate Lucille-one of the best artists in school-and Zahra, her tech-savvy, quick-thinking friend. And then there's Harrison Evans, the class clown with a thousand stories and a smile that keeps showing up whenever she least expects him.
But beneath the drama and glitter of school life, Ursula's starting to notice strange things about herself-flashes of light, whispers in the trees, and drawings that almost... move.
What if her love for art isn't just a hobby?
What if she's more than just a girl with messy lines?
A story about creativity, courage, chaotic rivals, and hidden wings-Drawn to Magic explores what happens when you fight to make your mark... even if the pencil feels too heavy to hold.
