What child doesn't love to hold a crayon in their hands? But children didn't always have such magical boxes of crayons. Before Edwin Binney set out to change things, children couldn't really even draw in color. Here’s the true story of an inventor who so loved nature’s vibrant colors that he found a way to bring the outside world to children – in a bright green box for only a nickel!

“How Crayola Crayons Are Made Today.” More information on Edwin Binney. Selected bibliography. Full-color photographs and illustrations done in charcoal crayon, gouache, and digital color.
