What is The crayons' book of colours about?

Duncan’s crayons are ready to celebrate his birthday by making a brilliant card.

Each crayon has its own ideas and personality, and together they create a wonderfully colourful surprise. With bright illustrations, playful details and plenty to spot, this lively board book introduces young children to colours while encouraging them to imagine what they might draw.
