I loved reading this book! Not only is it hilarious, but it also serves as a great tool to teach about different points of view and being sensitive to others feelings.

Sometimes, you just know a book is going to be good when you pick it up. This is one of them. Communicating, letter-writing crayons. What's not to love?

The Day the Crayons book is such a creative, and funny book! It definitely brings a new perspective to your mind. It is a great story to read, and reading everyone’s different perspectives is mind opening. Different crayon colors get tired…

For those of us who love colors and coloring, this book is terrific fun. These crayons have a lot to say and they do a great job expressing their feelings. Good modeling for kids! Be sure to check out the follow-up book "The Day the…
