How the Crayons Saved the Rainbow, by Monica Sweeney is an incredible children's book. Being relatively new, I do not think this book has received the attention it deserves. When the clouds and the sun decide they can no longer share the same sky, therefore there can no longer be rainbows, the world loses its color until all that is left is a box of crayons. It is then up to this small box of crayons to restore color to the world. This book is an excellent addition to a classroom library and teaches children the importance and values of friendship, perseverance, teamwork, and courage. ( )
