These long-awaited collectibles are
in stores near you! These crayons are here to make you remember the colors of
things in “Room.” They’re related by Violet: being the color of the blanket on
the bed that they slept with every night, Red: being the color of the wardrobe
that Jack slept in every night so Old Nick wouldn’t see him, White: The color
of the sink that Ma and Jack used every day, Orange: being the color of the
table that they would eat off of and sometimes move on to the bed to do their
physical education every day, Yellow: being the color of Jack’s toothbrush that
e used every night before he went to bed and every morning he woke up, Blue:
The skylight that jack and Ma saw but never thought it was actually real,
Indigo: The color of the walls that Old Nick has painted to make them “sound
proof”, Green: The color of the rug that Ma had baby Jack on about 5 years ago.
In Room, Ma talks about how she never asked
Old Nick to buy Jack markers or Play-Doh because it dries out so instead she
asked for pencils and crayons otherwise she would have to keep asking week,
after week. “’You never got Play-Doh for one of your Sunday treats?’ he asks.
‘It dries out.’ That’s Ma butting in. ‘Ever thing of that? Even if you put it back
in the tub, like, religiously, after a while it starts going leathery.’ ‘I
guess it would.’ Says Dr. Clay. ‘That’s the same reason I asked for crayons and
pencils, not markers or cloth diapers, and- whatever would last, so I wouldn’t
have to ask a week later.’” The reason I chose these colors to do for the
crayons because when Jack was explaining the room that Old Nick had locked them
in. When jack was explaining room though the book he didn’t quite know how
because he has never been to school, never taken a class, more been taught what
he needs to know to be at an average five year olds English. As jack explains
Room he does a really good with color because he has never left that his whole
life, he sees those colors every day, he knows what they are and what they are
not.
This
idea of making the crayons the color of things in Room is going to work because
a lot of little kids use crayons and pencils so when parents see that they are
selling things like this with popular colors on them they want to see what the
book is about and when you start reading this books it’s almost like you can’t
stop and if you can’t stop then your friends are going to notice you are
reading the book and they are going to want to read it too. My idea of the
crayons is going to net attention by giving examples of the book and people
thinking “Oh, what is this book about, it looks really good!” My idea
encourages people that already have read the book and love it, can use the
crayons when they need them, can get them for presents and little kids that
need crayons, but also can just keep them as a collectable, it shows a good
part of this book and shows that being in Room is really hard on not just MA
but also jack. By doing this it could also get someone who may want to do it to
someone to show how hard it is on the children and how cruel it is.
