I had a lot of trouble with grammar while I was studying German abroad at language school. Needless to say, I was always using my eraser. That's when it occurred to me how awesome a transforming eraser would be?one that changes into something cool, instead of just plain erasing. And so, the Evolution Eraser was born. If you start with the ape end of the eraser, you'll see it gradually change into a human. Start with the human end, and it will revert to an ape.
