The Crayons Give Thanks

11/07/2024

We're always excited about a "Crayons" book! This book too didn't disappoint!

Title: The Crayons Give Thanks

Author / Illustrator: Drew Daywalt / Oliver Jeffers

Publisher: Philomel Books

Several crayons one-by-one stop by each and tell the reader what they are thankful for. Each crayon is grateful for something which is in their color like the blue crayon is thankful for blueberries, black crayon is thankful for the night sky (which it colored fully on its own), yellow and orange are thankful for the safety vests that keep us safe, and so on!

However, ultimately, the crayons say how much they are grateful for each other and their togetherness. This is the same with all of us too - we're grateful for our friends and family, not during thanksgiving time but always!

📚 A fun way to teach kids about being grateful and perfect simple read for Thanksgiving.

📚 Delightful illustrations. Simple (very interesting) text.

📚 Recommended for kids ages 4+
