About this title

From School Library Journal:

Grade 2-4 The manufacture of crayons is the subject of this armchair field trip. The direct style of writing proceeds step by step from the creation of the base color to the finished box of multi-colored crayons. Each step is carefully but concisely explained and accompanied by a clear colorful photograph. Explanations of difficult terms are accomplished by comparisons with known words and processes. The amount of explanation is just right to meet primary graders' questions and their level of comprehension. An attractive, informative book that successfully describes both the process and product of crayon-making. Janie Schomberg, Edgerton Elementary School, Maplewood, Minn.
