This picture book would make a wonderful read-aloud for the whole family. What should Duncan do to appease the crayons? The only thing he can do – draw a giant picture using every color! Black would like to know why he always has to be the outline, can’t he be the main attraction for once? Green has no complaints, but would just like Duncan to know Yellow and Orange are driving everyone crazy arguing about who should be the color of the sun. Beige is lonely and never gets picked and, quite frankly, is sick of playing second fiddle to Brown.
