Duncan just wants to color. But, when he opens up his box of crayons, all he finds is letters from his crayons saying that they quit! What can Duncan do to convince the crayons to come back and continue doing what they do best? This imaginative, humorous, and creative story lends itself well to persuasive writing.
Maria - I love this book! And you have summarized it beautifully. Thanks for the idea to use it in teaching persuasive writing. Hmmm....I think I am the green crayon because all this summer green just makes me smile. I look forward to reading your blog in days to come and having my students comment on it as well. Thanks for providing another book resource.
