The Day the Crayons Quit by Drew Daywalt

Hi there! It's Emily again. Today I'm doing a short review of one of my most favourite books ever. It is called "The Day the Crayons Quit" and was written by Drew Daywalt. 

I enjoyed the book, because it had crayons writing letters to a boy called Duncan, and they were complaining about how he is using them. My most favourite letter is this one:


Hey Duncan,   

It’s me, peach crayon. Why did you peel off my paper wrapping? Now I’m NAKED and too embarrassed to leave the crayon box. I don’t even have any underwear! How would you like to go to school naked? I need some clothes. HELP!

Your naked friend,

PEACH CRAYON


I think the author has a super imagination, as he talks about crayons which can think and write. The fantastic illustrations by Oliver Jeffers make the story even better. I would recommend this book to anyone who loves silly stories and for boys and girls up to the age of 12. I have read this book about 15 times and find it very interesting, and most of all VERY FUNNY!
