Creepy Crayon! (Jasper Rabbit's Creepy Tales!)

Hey, I want to know if you and I can agree on something. Because it can't just be me. But hands down, the best week of the entire school year all through elementary was when they had the Scholastic Book Fair, right? Those classic books that defined our childhood. Was it Goosebumps? Where the Wild Things Are? Choose Your Own Adventure? Well, this book captures the spirit of that wonderful week. Our Little Girl first fell in loves with Creepy Carrots. The first of the three books in the "Creepy Tales" series. Then, it was Creepy Pair of Underwear. So when Creepy Crayon was published in the Fall of 2022, there was no doubt in our mind. My Wife and I both knew we absolutely needed to order for our Daughter. And she loves it. Look, there's no reason for you to not buy this book today. I have yet to hear about any kid not liking this book. Know what's kinda weird? The only 1-star reviews for this book don't even have to do with what the kids who got the book thought about it. They were negative reviews from adults who didn't "get" the book, as far as understanding what makes it interesting. It would be like ordering a skateboard for your child or grandchild, the kid loves it, but you leave a one-star review for it. Because you "just don't get" what's so interesting about skateboarding. As grown-ups, we're simply not the target audience for this book (even if we happen to enjoy it just like our child does). So I do think it's a little unfair to give this book a negative review, just because you don't find it interesting, or assume that maybe a three year old would be afraid of the story. So I say ignore the handful of negative reviews, which weren't even about what the kids thought. The positive reviews speak for themselves. Order the book. When you get done reading this review, add it to your shopping cart. Check out. It will show up at your door (or wherever you have it shipped) in about a week or less. It's only fifteen bucks. That's it. Two people can spend that much in a fast food drive-through. It's the price of just three frozen coffees. My point is this: we all might spend $15 on something that we only get to enjoy one time (food in particular). So why not take $15, and put it towards something your child or grandchild can actually enjoy for years? Maybe even pass it along to their own children. It's also a big plus that the time they spend reading, or being read to, means a little less "screen time" in their life. They get to unplug from their video games, the TV, the tablet, the Nintendo Switch, whatever. And just use their imagination while they read, or have it read to them. And if you're gifting someone else's child or grandchild, you can't beat a good book. Nothing wrong with buying a child a toy. But gifting a book tells the parents something. That you were thoughtful enough to find their child something both entertaining and educational. Instead of just roaming the toy aisle at Walmart, picking something out that maybe they'll like, maybe they'll forget about after one day. I think a book as a gift says a lot about the person gifting it. So buy the book today. The holidays are right around the corner. Don't run the risk of putting it off, only to find that the book is sold out online and in stores. Order it now, so you at least have that one gift ready and waiting for the holidays. As parents who care about our child's imagination and literacy, my Wife and I both are really happy we ordered this book for our Little Girl.

My daughter wanted this book and I'm so glad I got it for her, it is great quality and the story is so cute I'm very happy with my purchase.

My kindergartener loves jasper books! He requested the series after reading one in school and now it’s a staple in our home. Great books for all kids.

My 6 year old read this book in his classroom and was obsessed with it. We bought this for him and he was very engaged in the story and laughed a lot. We now have the series and he enjoys rereading all of the books. The pictures are nicely done and flow well with the story.

Cute book for the toddlers. Great addition to the series

I read this book to TK-3rd grade classes at our local elementary school a few days before Halloween. The children loved it! At the end of the story I gave each of them a purple crayon to take home. 💜🖍️

Perfect read for the little ones who love a good creepy tale. My granddaughters loved it!

Cute book! My nephew loved it! The book came on time and in great condition, even though it was noted to be used.

Cute book! My kids love it!

Mons fils adore les livres de cette collection, alors celui-ci est aussi super sympa

A los alumnos les encanta leer. Me lo han pedido y lo compre para el salón de clases.

What a great book! Or it would have been if it had actually arrived.

I purchased Creepy Underwear much to the absolute delight of my grandson & Creepy Carrots & Creepy Crayon were a natural follow up. These books are his favourites & are read over & over with squeals of delight. I highly recommend adding these to your little ones’ library.
