The Day the Crayons Quit

I am amazed at how creatively this book is written by the author . Great illustrations too. I got this for my 4years old and I ended up loving it. She likes it too. At first she did not get the context of the book, but slowly she is trying to understand. But she loves to listen to me reading this for her. Probably kids age above 5 or 6 may able to understand and enjoy this even more.

This book is too good. Its not even a day since the book got delivered and I have read it numerous times for my kids on request. I will give the reasons on why it's soo good.. 1. This book is in a letter format.Since this is a technology age, kids have no idea what a letter is and it's a nice way to introduce it. 2. Never peal the wrapper off of a crayon. 3. Use all your crayons equally. 4. No rules on how an object to be colored. It can be colored in anyway they want and its OK to do so. And last but not the least 5. Author has penned it really well. It's a well thought book. Must have for children. This is too good to miss.

This is the most hilarious books I have read. The innovative way of imagining each colour's emotions are so strong and intriguing that it kind of makes you respect the crayons after this. The illustrations by Oliver Jeffers and the Story line both are a perfect match. The best way to read this book is to read each crayon's letter in the book in a different voice to bring in some more realism to it.

It's a lovely book, good quality paper. Bigger than I expected. Its a different story about crayons hence got it to add to my 3 year Olds collection. I'm hoping she enjoys it as we read it more often. The book is in a letter format written by the crayons to their own we Dunken.

Don't we all have complains in real life? Can we not wade through them with a bit of satire? What a distinct style of writing. There is satire in every page, something I did not find so often in children's book. Everyone has a compaint. While one crayon feels it is overused, the other remains unused. Someone does not need to be used while the other does not want to used only in a specific way. Somebody is misunderstood, someone is naked, a few are having a quarrel and a good friend is trying to mediate the fight. I could not stop myself from laughing while reading this book. The entire family has fun everytime I read this book aloud, including my toddler who likes to be funny. Not just the text, but also the presentation is very very unique. It feels like somebody has taken out handwritten pages from a very old worn-out diary, scanned them and got them printed. Each drawing reminds me of my own childhood days and what waits ahead as my toddler earns the craft. Really, of you want to have a funny moment with the family, get this book and read it aloud.

The illustrations are really very beautiful and cute for a child of 4 years. The writings are also very enjoyable to be read out to a child or being read by them. You and the Child can thoroughly enjoy innocent feeling of the Crayons.

I never thought that a book can be so interesting. This is the favourite book of my daughter and this book has ignite her interest in the books. Now she have more than 10 books in her personal library and she is just 6. Just a single problem that I want to mention. This book makes the search for other new books harder because you can't find another book that can compete.

I bought this book for my 6-year-old son. He really likes the book. The book is filled with colourful pictures and simple illustrations. Very interesting book.

Can’t get enough of this book!

An amazing story for kids to learn about feelings in a really creative way!

English words are witty and expressive

These books are super cute. The illustrations are great and colorful. I hope to get the rest along the way. They are good quality and easy for kids to enjoy.
