"While walking through a toy store, the day before today, I overheard a crayon box with many things to say..." Once upon a time, Shane DeRolf wrote a poem. It was a deceptively simple poem, a charming little piece that celebrates the creation of harmony through diversity. The folks at the Ad Council heard it--and liked it so much that they made it the theme for their 1997 National Anti-Discrimination Campaign for Children. Following on the heels of nearly a year's worth of televised public service announcements, Random House is phonored to publish the picture book, illustrated in every color in the crayon box by dazzling newcomer Michael Letzig and conveying the sublimely simple message that when we all work together, the results are much more interesting and colorful.

The Crayon Box That Talked
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.
