The Day the Crayon Quit



Daywalt, D. (2013). The day the Crayons Quit. NY. Philomel Books

A funny story and New York Times number 1 bestseller book by Drew Daywalt who depicts crayons as frustrated at the way they are treated. The illustration depicts the personality of each color wonderfully. One by one the colors decided to write Duncan a letter complaining. Red writes that he is used too much even works on holidays coloring hearts, Santa’s, and fire engines. Purple complains that he is always used for dragons, wizard’s hat and grapes. Two colors are always arguing, yellow and orange are sour rivals. Blue is complaining that he always has to color water.  Beige is always left out. Uniquely written story of a box of crayons will have your laughing.
