Tiny Bee Gift Co. was founded by Dallas native, Amy Bean, a mother of 3 young children whose time at Harvard Kennedy School exposed her to social enterprise; the idea of using commercial strategies to tackle social problems. With the desire to teach her children and their friends the importance of giving back, she started Tiny Bee Gift Co with a simple concept: Gift one. Give one. For each Tiny Bee book purchased from The Tot, Tiny Bee donates a second book to Baby2Baby, who provide low-income children with the basic necessities (including books!) that every child deserves.
Poor Duncan just wants to color. But when he opens his box of crayons, he finds only letters, all saying the same thing: His crayons have had enough! They quit! Beige Crayon is tired of playing second fiddle to Brown Crayon. Black wants to be used for more than just outlining. Blue needs a break from coloring all those bodies of water. And Orange and Yellow are no longer speaking—each believes he is the true color of the sun. What can Duncan possibly do to appease all of the crayons and get them back to doing what they do best? Kids will be imagining their own humorous conversations with crayons and coloring a blue streak after sharing laughs with Drew Daywalt and New York Times bestseller Oliver Jeffers.
