In the new picture book by the New York Times-bestselling creator of My Heart Is Like a Zoo and It’s an Orange Aardvark!, a blue crayon mistakenly labeled \”red\” suffers an identity crisis. Finally, with the help of family, classmates, teachers, and a brand-new friend, he finds the courage to be true to his inner self. This funny, heartwarming, colorful picture book can be read on multiple levels and offers something for everyone! This is a story about a crayon I know. I wrote it for you. Red has a bright red label but he is, in fact, blue. His teacher tries to help him be red (let’s draw strawberries!), his mother tries to help him be red by sending him out on a playdate with a yellow classmate (go draw a nice orange!), and the scissors try to help him be red by snipping his label so that he has room to breathe. But Red is miserable. He just can’t be red, no matter how hard he tries! Finally, a brand-new friend offers a brand-new perspective, and Red discovers what readers have known all along. He’s blue! Funny, insightful, layered, and colorful, the new picture book by Michael Hall is about being true to your inner self and following your own path.
