In the past, alarmed parents used to suspect thatPencils were made from lead, making it more susceptible to lead poisoning. Myths say that accidentally puncturing yourself with a pencil can led to poisoning. In fact, graphite is the actually "lead" material that's used in pencils. This is the ideal material because graphite chemically forms a carbon bond. Graphite is easy to work with because it is soft and can be encased into a wooden barrel.
