About this title: In Shane DeRolf's deceptively simple poem, a child's box of crayons conveys the sublimely simple message that when we all work together, the results are much more interesting and colorful. Soon to be a nationally syndicated television show. Full color.

"When I was a young child I was a crayon fanatic. I loved my box of 64 (the biggest at the time, or the biggest I knew of) and my box of 8 large sized crayons too. So, I'm a fan of drawing with crayons.
I also appreciate books that show the value of teamwork and that show how to appreciate diversity, which this book does.
I really wanted to love it but I just liked it. I might not have been in the optimal mood to read this book.
The colors in the illustrations are crayon hued and I enjoyed that, but I didn't find the illustrator's style that pleasing.
The story is fine for a preschooler and I do think that preschoolers will enjoy this book, but there aren't a lot of words and I think it would not be an exciting book for older children.
For preschoolers who enjoy drawing with crayons or are about to try out drawing with crayons, for preschoolers who are being taught to participate in a group project, or are getting a lesson in appreciating differences, this could be an appealing book."
"This is a great book to introduce or review colors in pre-k or kindergarten. You could read this book and then give children a blank coloring page of a box of crayons and have them color it...with crayons! :)"
