A hilarious picture book about an artistic kitty's search for inspiration-and the mischievous younger sibling who keeps getting in the way. Big Cat has a fresh new piece of paper, a box of big, beautiful crayons, and a dream- to create something TOTALLY SPECTACULAR and become WORLD FAMOUS! The only problem All the crayons have gone missing except for one tiny red stub. What a disaster! And even if Big Cat could make something with the stub, what could possibly be spectacular enough to be worth drawing Making matters worse, Big Cat has a younger sibling who keeps getting in the way. Little Cat seems less interested in making SPECTACULAR ART and more excited about . . . food, mostly. What's a feline in search of inspiration to do Packed with sly humor and visual jokes in Marcus Cutler's bold, appealing artwork, The Crayon Stub tackles big questions about creativity, resourcefulness and collaboration-delivering big laughs along the way!
