COMMUNITY REVIEWS
A Simple, Charming Christmas Story submitted by Meginator on August 22, 2022, 10:16am This imaginative Christmas book only barely shows its age decades after its publication, its celebration of imagination and the holiday spirit having a timeless quality to it. Harold and his purple crayon conjure a series of Christmas scenes from gentle snowdrifts to the North Pole itself and, eventually, a quiet night next to the Christmas tree. The interactive illustrations are built around a clever narrative conceit as Harold creates the world around him, and the story moves nicely from drawing to drawing, making his world come alive. This is exceptional and timeless storytelling and should be loved for decades to come.
