Review: Loved it! - I had originally bought this book for my niece although if we are being totally honest here, I bought it for myself :D. I had seen this book out last year in hardback and it sounded really good, but kinda fell off my radar until the paperback release this year when I thought right I'm going to buy it. The idea of this story is so simple and yet so brilliant. Duncan's crayons have decided that they have had enough, so they each write him a letter explaining why. Each of the letters didn't fail to make me laugh, especially the one from peach crayon. I definitely think this is a story for children and adults alike as there is some humour in here to make it fun for adults to read to their children. Hands down, Oliver Jeffers is my all time favourite illustrator and he really makes this book amazing. I think it is the expressions that he draws on each of the crayons faces that make this story even more funny and I just love looking at them. Although my niece is still too young to read at the moment, she loved me reading it to her and kept pointing at all the wonderful pictures. This is definitely a book that will stay in the family a long time.
Review: nice - "The Day the Crayons Quit" is an absolute gem of a book that captivates both children and adults alike with its whimsical storytelling and vibrant illustrations. This delightful picture book showcases the imaginative world of crayons and their individual personalities, making it a must-read for all ages. Drew Daywalt's creative narrative takes us on an adventure as we discover a box of crayons that have decided to voice their opinions. From Duncan's trusty red crayon to the underappreciated white crayon, each character has a unique perspective to share. This concept not only entertains but also subtly teaches children about the importance of empathy and understanding. What truly stands out in this book are the captivating illustrations by Oliver Jeffers. Jeffers brings each crayon to life with their own distinct expressions, making them instantly relatable and endearing. The combination of Daywalt's clever writing and Jeffers' imaginative artwork creates a visual feast that will keep readers engaged from start to finish. "The Day the Crayons Quit" not only sparks creativity but also encourages children to think outside the box. It celebrates the power of imagination and self-expression, reminding us all that every color has its own significance and purpose. This book has become a staple in our household, and it never fails to bring a smile to both young and old faces. In conclusion, "The Day the Crayons Quit" is a delightful book that deserves all the praise it receives. It is a testament to the power of storytelling and art, reminding us of the joy and wonder that can be found within the pages of a children's book. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a heartwarming and imaginative read that will brighten up their day.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Have you ever wondered what it would be like to be a crayon??
*by A***R on 19 August 2024*

This book is well written and I don't know a child yet that hasn't enjoyed listening to it. It is so funny and every page is done in a very child friendly format, each coloured crayon writes its own letter to express how it feels about what is draws or what it would like to draw instead. Essentially the book explores stereotypes, but through the eyes of a crayon. Genius, even adults find this book brilliant. This book is so good, you can even buy the crayon costume for 'World Book Day!'
