Publisher's Summary

Chris Rodell likes to consult with a five-year-old anytime he needs a reminder as to what is important in life. In his uplifting, humorous, and spiritual guidebook Use All the Crayons, Rodell encourages others to become universally happy by becoming more colorful, interesting, and, most importantly, fun! Rodell insists that colorful people are invited to the coolest parties; with that goal in mind, he presents over 500 tips and entertaining, Dale Carnegie-like anecdotes that provide a glimpse into how he has personally transformed his life into one not focused on money or fame, but instead on inspirational experiences, laughter, and fulfillment.

Accompanied by personal diary entries, Rodell shares simple ideas for living a more colorful life, including making balloon animals, juggling bean bags, and and understanding the advantages of getting a $75 wrist tattoo of an $18,000 Rolex instead of the real thing. Like a box of crayons, we are all born with an astounding range of color options. This creative guidebook combines instinctual DNA with a healthy dose of optimism with the hopes of teaching others how to make every day as vivacious as the brightest crayon in the box.
