Goodreads' 2013 Picture Book of the Year! Amazon's Best Picture Book of the Year! A Barnes & Noble Best Book of 2013! * "Making a noteworthy debut, Daywalt composes droll missives that express aggravation and aim to persuade, while Jeffers's ( This Moose Belongs to Me ) crayoned images underscore the waxy cylinders' sentiments: each spread features a facsimile of a letter scrawled, naturally, in the crayon's hue; a facing illustration evidences how Duncan uses the crayon, as in a picture of a giant elephant, rhino, and hippo (Gray laments, 'That's a lot of space to color in all by myself'). These memorable personalities will leave readers glancing apprehensively at their own crayon boxes."-- Publishers Weekly, starred review -- Publisher's Weekly "Jeffers delivers energetic and playful illustrations. The drawings are loose and lively, and with few lines, he makes his characters effectively emote. Clever spreads, such as Duncan's 'white cat in the snow' perfectly capture the crayons' conundrum, and photographic representations of both the letters and coloring pages offer another layer of texture, lending to the tale's overall believability. A comical, fresh look at crayons and color."-- Kirkus Reviews "Fresh and funny. Oliver Jeffers's quirky, joyful illustrations convey the strength and comedy of the crayons' sentiments, and children ages 4-8 will laugh in recognition at seeing their own color preferences reflected back at them."-- The Wall Street Journal "Hilarious. . . Each spread includes a reproduction of an actual letter (written in crayon, of course) on the verso, facing an appropriate composition such as a childlike crayon drawing or a colored-in page from a coloring book. The crayons themselves, with deceptively simple line and dot faces, are rich in emotion and character, and it's entertaining to consider each crayon's representation in light of the voice in its letter. While potential lessons in inference, point of view, and persuasive writing abound in the crayons' letters, this is guaranteed to see just as much use for being just plain fun. Move over, Click, Clack, Moo (BCCB 9/00); we've got a new contender for most successful picture-book strike."-- BCCB, **From THE WALL ST. JOURNA L ** "Fresh and funny.

Almost perfect. They sent it out and I got it very quickly. Well packaged. Excellent price. They do good work as a seller. Every disc was clear of issues and played perfectly. Very happy overall. Only 1 disc was missing, but it was only the first 4 episodes so I'm happy, didn't bother contacting the seller because It's not a problem so they might be surprised to see that in the review, beyond that everything was great.
