介绍:
Narrator: One day in class, Duncan went to take out his crayons and found a stack of
letters with his name on them.
Red Crayon:
Hey Duncan,
It’s me, RED Crayon. WE NEED to talk. You make me work harder than any of your other
crayons. All year long I wear myself out coloring FIRE ENGINES, Apples, strawberries and
EVERYTHING ELSE that’s RED. I even work on Holidays!
I have to color all the SANTas at CHRIStmas and aLL the HEArts on Valentine’s day! I
NEED A REST!
Your overworked friend,
RED Crayon.
Purple Crayon:
Dear Duncan,
All right, LISTEN.
I love that I’m your favorite crayon for grapes, dragons, and wizard’s hats, but it makes me
crazy that so much of my gorgeous color goes outside the lines. If you DON’T START
COLORING INSIDE the lines soon … I’m going to COMPLETELY LOSE IT.
Your very neat friend,
Purple Crayon
Beige Crayon:
Dear Duncan,
I’m tired of being called “light brown” or “Dark tan” because I am neither. I am BEIGE and I
am proud. I’m also tired of being second place to Mr. Brown Crayon. It’s not fair that Brown
gets all the bears, ponies and puppies while the only things I get are turkey dinners (if I’m
lucky) and wheat, and let’s be honest–when was the last time you saw a kid excited about
coloring wheat?
Your BEIGE friend,
Beige Crayon
Gray Crayon:
Duncan,
GRAY Crayon here. You’re KILLING ME! I know you love Elephants And I know that
elephants are gray… but that’s a LOT of space to color in all by myself.
And don’t even get me started on your rhinos, hippos and HUMPBACK WHALES… you
know how tired I am after handling one of those big things? such BIG animals… baby
penguins are gray, you know. So are very tiny rocks. Pebbles. How about one of those
once in a while to give me a break?
Your very tired friend,
Gray Crayon
White Crayon:
Dear Duncan,
You color with me, but why? most of the time I’m the same color as the page you are using
me on–WHITE. If I didn't have a black outline, you wouldn't even know I was THERE! I’m not
even in the rainbow. I’m only used to color SNOW or to fill in empty space between other
things. And it leaves me feeling… well… empty. We need to talk.
Your empty friend,
White Crayon
Black Crayon:
Hi, Duncan,
I HATE being used to draw the outline of things… … things that are colored in by other
colors, all of which think they’re brighter than me! It’s NOT FAIR when you use me to draw a
nice beach ball and then fill in the colors of the ball with ALL THE OTHER CRAYONS. How
about a BLACK Beach ball sometime? Is that too much to ask?
Your Friend,
Black Crayon
Green Crayon:
Dear Duncan,
As Green Crayon, I am writing for two reasons. One is to say that I like my workloads of
crocodiles, trees, dinosaurs, and frogs. I have no problem and wish to congratulate you on
a very successful “coloring things Green” career so far.
The second reason I write is for my friends, Yellow Crayon and Orange Crayon, who are no
longer speaking to each other. Both crayons feel THEY should be the color of the sun.
Please settle this soon because they’re driving the rest of us CRAZY!
Your happy friend,
Green Crayon
Yellow Crayon:
Dear Duncan,
Yellow Crayon here. I need you to tell orange crayon that I am the color of the sun. I would
tell him but we are no longer speaking. And I can PROVE I’m the color of the sun too! Last
Tuesday, you used me to color in the sun on your “HAPPY FARM” coloring book. In case
you’ve forgotten, it’s on page 7. You CAN’T MISS me. I’m shining down brilliantly on a field
of YELLOW corn!
Your pal (and the true color of the sun),
Yellow Crayon
Orange Crayon:
Dear Duncan,
I see Yellow Crayon already talked to you, the BIG WHINER. Anyway, could you please tell
Mr. Tattletale that he IS NOT the color of the sun? I would, but we are no longer speaking.
We both know that I am clearly the color of the SUN because, on Thursday, you used me to
color the sun on BOTH the “monkey island” and the “Meet the Zookeeper” pages in your
“DAY AT THE ZOO” coloring book. Orange you glad I’m here? Ha!
Your pal (and the real color of the sun),
Orange Crayon
Blue Crayon:
Dear DUNCAN,
It has been great being your FAVORITE color this PAST Year. And the Year before THAT!
I have really enjoyed all those OCEANS, LAKES, Rivers, raindrops, rain CLOUDS and
CLEAR skies.
But the BAD NEWS is that I am so short and stubby, I can’t even see over the railing in the
CRAYON BOX anymore! I need a BREAK!
Your very stubby friend.
Blue Crayon
Pink Crayon:
Duncan,
Okay, LISTEN HERE, KID! You have not used me ONCE in the past year.
It’s because you think I am a GIRLS’ color, isn’t it? Speaking of which, please tell your little
sister I said thank you for using me to color in her “LITTle PRINCess” coloring book. I think
she did a fabulous job of staying inside the lines!
Now, back to us. Could you PLEASE use me sometime to color the occasional PINK
DINOSAur or MONSTER or COWBoy? Goodness knows they could use a splash of color.
Your unused friend,
Pink Crayon
Peach Crayon:
It’s me, PEACH CRAYON. WHY did you peel off my paper wrapping?? Now I’m NAKED
and too embarrassed to leave the crayon box.
I don’t even have any underwear! How would You like to go to school naked? I need some
clothes. HELP!
Your naked friend,
PEACH Crayon
