The Day The Crayons Quit
Author/Illustrator: Drew Daywalt/Oliver Jeffers
Genre: Fantasy
Awards: Texas Bluebonnet Award
Grade Level: Prek-2nd
This book is about a boy named Duncan and his very angry and upset crayons. His crayons all wrote him letters telling him how unfair it was for him to use some more than others, and how others are tired of being used so much. They want to quit. Duncan turns everything around by creating a drawing using every color.
This is a cute book fro young elementary students ranging from Prek to 2nd grade. I would not use this book for instructional purposes but I would keep it in my classroom. This book is designed in a fun, unique way that will keep readers, or listeners, interested.
