Craig the Crayon leaves a mark

Craig the Crayon leaves a mark is an entertaining story about a little boy’s relationship with his favourite crayon and the feelings he experiences when it disappears.

Beautifully illustrated by Samie Illife, the story has been imagined to help children open a conversation about grief, separation anxiety and loss.

The book has been produced in partnership with children’s bereavement charity Harry’s Rainbow to provide a free resource for their beneficiaries. As Harry's Rainbow celebrates its 15th anniversary in 2026, 15% of all book profits will be donated to the charity to help fund its valuable work.
