Can I just say that I really like that the person who is telling the story tried to “help” the crayon too? I think that’s really important, that the pencil tried to sharpen Blue. I think a lot of us have felt like we could fix people or had people try to fix us, or tried to fix ourselves. If I just try hard enough I can be what people expect me to be…
I can’t help but think how important a book like this would be to a kid, especially the crayon at the end saying how much Blue’s work moved it. You can give so much to the world by being yourself, your true own self. ;_; I just have a lot of feelings.
Yes, I am crying, thank you.
@roughkiss, I’m positive that one day one of your kids in school will be happy you have that book. ❤️
