![]() Daywalt's trademark humor delights and enthralls in this story. Conflict is revealed and Duncan, the boy who owns the crayons, is left to problem-solve his way to a resolution. The crayons as characters express their feelings and provide support for their emotions in ways that relate to student coloring habits. ![]() What I like best: Daywalt makes this reading experience authentic for students by using different topics and devices. Additionally, the illustrations by Oliver Jeffers portray shapes and crayon strokes that students can see in their own work, allowing them to identify as illustrators. Students will adore reading about their most familiar and accessible art supplies and the personification applied to them. Why I chose it: This book easily captures the attention of young minds and works to engage and inspire them throughout the entire story and during follow-up activities. ![]() Suitable for: Pre-kindergarten to fifth grade ![]() Recommended by: Rebecca Benjamin, literacy specialist, Schenectady City School District, Schenectady Federation of Teachers ![]()
