Red: A Crayon's Story

Author and illustrator: Michael Hall

An empowering picture book about a mislabelled crayon. His label says he’s red, but when he draws, he’s blue! At first the other crayons try to ‘fix’ him, then a new friend helps him accept who he is, allowing him to flourish. A beautiful extended metaphor for acceptance.
