Book of the Month: The Day the Crayons Quit |
|
The hilarious, colorful #1 New York Times bestselling phenomenon, that every kid wants. Poor Duncan just wants to color, but when he opens his box of crayons, he finds only letters, all saying the same thing: His crayons have had enough; they quit. What can Duncan possibly do to appease all of the crayons and get them back to doing what they do best? Kids will be imagining their own humorous conversations with crayons and coloring a blue streak after sharing laughs. This story is perfect as a back-to-school gift, for all budding artists and for fans of humorous books. |

You can volunteer by lending a hand at an upcoming event, like our Friendsgiving Hoedown Event, collecting donations on our behalf, or helping us pack/prepare donations.
