I'm also unclear as to where religion falls in this. Is the book saying that "God" (the factory) make a mistake in labeling Red? Or is Red extra-special, unique and brilliant for being someone who has a red label but a blue "soul?" Of course, if you are raising your child in the Christian faith (just my two cents here) the most important thing is to teach compassion, mercy and love. None of this soul-destroying 'love the person, hate the 'sin'' trash ('sin' is in quotes because even thinking that word in regards to transgender people makes my blood boil) that is so common now. I think it's clear in the book that Red's family and friends love him and care about him, and when it becomes obvious to them that Red is blue, they rejoice in his specialness and his unique gifts. They love Red, they want him to be happy, they cheer and rejoice when their friend is free and happily expressing his true self. That is love. That is the true nature of Christianity (IMO).

How do you know who you are? How do you know what you are good at? How do you know what your talents are? These questions are also raised in the book when Blue tries over and over to be able to draw in red by practicing drawing red things. His fellow crayon family and friends make recommendations: they adjust his label, they give him a scarf, they try to fix him with tape. But despite all their efforts, Red cannot draw red things. a b c d e f g h i j k l m n o p q r s t u v w x y z aa ab ac ad ae af ag ah ai aj ak al am an ao ap aq ar as at au av aw ax ay az ba bb bc bd be bf bg bh bi bj bk bl bm bn bo bp bq br bs bt bu bv bw bx by bz ca Welter, Ed (2021-11-12).

The chart [18] includes the color changer, an off-white crayon that goes on clear and initiates the color changes in the other crayons from the "From color" to the "To color". Red is a crayon unlike his peers. Whilst everyone around him is able to colour in with the title given to them be it: berry, olive, scarlet or brown, Red just keeps churning out blue. Those around him think they are being helpful, even the narrator, by encouraging him to keep trying or to persevere since it will come to him in the end. Red, however hard he tries though, keeps producing blue. It is only when a new friend comes along with an insight far greater than Blue's current family and friends, that the little crayon finally sees who he truly is.

The husband was standing in the hallway, wondering about this weird phenomenon, when he began to notice something was not quite right. The hallway was too short. The other art supplies try to help him--the scissors thought his label was too tight and snipped it. The making tape thought he was broken inside and taped him to help hold him together. The sharpener thought he wasn't sharp enough. With the help of a friend, he owns his "blueness" and disregards his factory label and finally he feels free and happy. Now the crayon peanut gallery says things like, "Who could have known he was blue?" "I always said he was blue" "It was obvious" All Red's friends try to "help" him. Masking Tape tapes him. Scissors cuts his label a tiny bit. Pencil Sharpener sharpens him. However, obviously none of these actions change the blue crayon to a red one. Even without the knowledge of what 'transgender' is, children will delight in their ability to clearly see what all the foolish and misguided crayons can't see - the obvious fact that Red is a blue crayon. You can talk about how clothes don't make the man, how it's important not to judge people on their appearances. You could use it to illustrate gender roles or to express the importance of celebrating a person's true gifts (even if that gift doesn't "fit" with a person's physical appearance - think of Binky Barnes being an accomplished ballet dancer on Arthur). There's so much to talk about here without talking about being transgender, but this book IS without a doubt about transgender people.
