THE #1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER WITH MILLIONS OF COPIES SOLD The blockbuster hit that kids (and grown-ups!) will enjoy reading again and again--a hilarious, colorful picture book celebrating creativity and self-expression, hailed as "fresh and funny" (The Wall Street Journal) and "utterly original" (San Francisco Chronicle). WINNER OF THE E.B. WHITE READ-ALOUD AWARD - A KIRKUS REVIEWS BEST PICTURE BOOK OF THE CENTURY - ONE OF THE ATLANTIC'S 65 ESSENTIAL CHILDREN'S BOOKS Poor Duncan just wants to color. But when he opens his box of crayons, he finds only written letters, all saying the same thing: His crayons have had enough! They quit! Blue Crayon needs a break from coloring all those bodies of water. Black Crayon wants to be used for more than just outlining. And Orange and Yellow are no longer speaking--each believes he is the true color of the sun. What can Duncan possibly do to appease all the crayons and get them back to doing what they do best? With giggle-inducing text from Drew Daywalt, and bold, bright illustrations from Oliver Jeffers, The Day the Crayons Quit is a modern classic.
