The Crayons Strike - Oliver Jeffers - De Fontein

In Picking the Crayons by Oliver Jeffers, Teun has a problem. He wants to make a drawing, but when he opens his coloring box, he only finds a pile of letters in it.

The letters come from his crayons, which are striking. Black wants to be used for more than just the lines and Beige doesn't want to be in the shadow of Brown anymore. Blue needs rest after all the rivers, oceans and skies he has worked on. Red also complains that he has to do too much, while Pink would like to be used more often. Can Teun calm down his crayons and come up with a solution that everyone is happy with?
