“Duncan, Okay, LISTEN HERE KID! You have not used me ONCE in the past year. It’s because you think I’m a girls’ color, isn’t it? Speaking of which please tell your little sister I said thank you for using me to color in her ‘Little Princess’ coloring book. I think she did a fabulous job of staying in the lines! Now, back to us. Could you PLEASE use me sometime to color the occasional PINK DINOSAUR or Monster or cowboy? Goodness knows they could use a splash of color. Your unused friend, Pink Crayon”

“Dear Duncan, You color with me, but why? Most of the time I’m the same
color as the page you are using me on –WHITE. If I didn’t have a black outline, you wouldn’t even know I was THERE! I’m not even used to color SNOW or to fill in empty space between other things. And it leaves me feeling… well… empty. We need to talk. Your empty friend, White Crayon”
