Crayola to Help Kids Become Authors

The kits will give children the tools and inspiration to write stories and bring them to life as full-color hardcover or paperback books that are professionally printed and bound.

Each book-making kit will come with Crayola markers or colored pencils.

"We are always looking for new ways to spark children's creativity and bring their imagination to life," says Warren Schorr, vice president of licensing, Crayola. "We're thrilled to partner with Lulu Jr. and help children create their unique stories through color."

Three co-branded book-making kits are scheduled to hit shelves in 2015.
