I voskovky se mohou rozzlobit - tak moc, že začnou psát dopisy svému majiteli Toníkovi. Prostě už nehodlají mlčet! Červená voskovka je k smrti unavená a chce dovolenou. Fialové se nelíbí, jak moc Tonda přetahuje, černou nebaví dělat ostatním barvám obrysy, žlutá s oranžovou spolu nemluví, protože se hádají, která je barvou slunce...Ale Tonda si si s nespokojeností a řevnivostí voskovek umí poradit!
Tonda to se svými voskovkami nemá jednoduché. V knize Den, kdy voskovky řekly DOST se mu sice podařilo nespokojené barvičky uchlácholit, teď ho ale jiné prosí o pomoc! Vínová je zlomená, protože si na ni sedl tatínek. Tyrkysová se v sušičce zapletla do ponožky. A to je jen ukázka příkoří, která by měl Toník napravit, aby se všechny voskovky mohly vrátit zpátky DOMŮ!
