What is The Day The Crayons Came Home about?

Duncan's crayons are back, and they're more disgruntled than ever! From Maroon Crayon, lost under the sofa and broken in two, to Turquoise Crayon, stuck to a stinky sock after a mishap in the dryer, each has a tale of woe. Through humorous postcards, these forgotten crayons plead to return home, leading Duncan to create a special place where all his crayons can feel welcome. This delightful sequel highlights the importance of empathy and belonging.
