The best model that closely resembles the thickness of the crust relative to the rest of the Earth is "The crust is like the peel of a grapefruit."
This analogy works well because the peel is very thin compared to the overall size of the grapefruit, similar to how the Earth's crust is relatively thin compared to the larger layers of the Earth, such as the mantle and core.
