bring your imagination

If you have a small child who is not crazy about books, try this one. I have yet to read it to a kindergarten class who was not enthralled with it. Harold is a delight for young and old. He is lovable and at the same time all-powerful, wielding his purple crayon as he chooses. This is a classic no family should be without.

Attention grabber

This classic story grabbed the attention of our 4 year old son from the first read. Now, hundreds of readings later, he still loves Harold. The simplicity of the story and the illustrations are soothing to both my son and me. I love reading this uncomplicated and yet symbolic story over and over again as much as my son loves hearing it over and over again.

Great Book

My seven year old loves this book. She now likes to think of new ways for Harold to use his crayon.

A good book in a time when children are losing their imagination

I'm currently studying to become a teacher and I bought this book for my children's lit class. It's an amazing book. With so much television and video games so many children are no longer using their imagination. This book ivites children to take a walk with their own crayons (one can only hope they take this walk on paper, but we've never had trouble with this) and see where it leads them. A wonderful book, with fun pictures.
