How wonderful! Magic can still be found anywhere-even in a simple box of crayons. In our tech-crazy world, Zoey's Magic Crayons is a refreshing change. Miss Barreto delivers this message at an age when most of her contemporaries never look up from their video games or phones. Along with her, our imagination is sparked, and we are reminded of the magic and joy in the world around us. We are delighted, right along with Zoey, when the crayons come to life one by one. We learn from their names how to use them when drawing. We are delighted when our art comes to life. But perhaps the most important thing we learn-when we use our imaginations, we are never alone. What a marvelous message for all of us who think entertainment can only come from something that has to be plugged in or turned on. - Ann Collins, Book Reviewer
