This is the second edition of this book. The original came out in 2012. Not having read it, I do not know what the changes were, but there are some clues in the book that the original could have been marginalizing to certain people. Overall this book is interesting. The brown crayon is trying to find his talents and what makes his special. Sometimes the book rhymes, sometimes it does not. Yes, that bothers me. It’s not a bad book, but not a favorite either.
