Fun book! Especially for my students learning English. I read this to my 4th graders in S. Korea. Even though most of them are not at a level to comprehend the sentences they really liked the drawings. It was also a great way for them to review their colors and animals! :)

This is another board book I've read approximately 4,000 times since my son got interested in books a few months ago. Each page or two page spread has a different color and all the stuff drawn with it. Green has drawn a frog, a dinosaur, a tree, and some recycling crocodiles, while beige has only drawn wheat. My son is into shouting out the names of colors when he sees them so this is a fun one for him.

Before Miles was born, they threw a baby shower for us at my work. It's really weird that two years later, half of the people at the shower have either retired or quit and I haven't seen the ones I still work with in over a year and a half because of working remotely during the pandemic.

For: fans of crayons/The Day the Crayons Quit; readers looking for a color book with humor.

Possible red flags: some readers may find this too simple or lacking in comparison to the original.

Simple color board book. I pick up one of these from the library and I ask myself - why did I put this on hold? And often I really don't remember. For this one it's probably that one of the other books by this author was pretty good. This was okay. It had a few mild jokes but no through story. The art was nothing special - which is actually fairly typical for the artist - who I mostly don't appreciate. meh. There are better color books. This one isn't actually bad, it's just not all that good.

Cute crayons, each with a personality of it's own. Slightly disappointed that the companion book, The Crayons' Book of Numbers, uses many of the same illustrations. Wouldn't buy both.
