Book Reviews of Harold and the Purple Crayon: Under the Sea (Festival Readers)
Book Review: Pointless purple crayon
Summary: 1 Stars
The whole point of "Harold and the Purple Crayon" is that Harold creates what he needs and wants with his purple crayon. Therefore, in the original series of books, with the exception of Harold himself, everything is only a purple outline, because he has drawn it with his purple crayon. In this book, the drawings are in color, with only a purple outline around the multi-colored drawings. Is Harold now carrying around a 10 pack of colored pencils? How does this book demonstrate that Harold is drawing anything with his purple crayon? It doesn't make sense. The magic is absent. How sad that we think children need color more than imagination. They've taken away the entire plot and purpose of the book. "Harold and the Purple Crayon" was one of my favorite books as a small child, and I still read it to my three children, but sadly, this is nothing like the original.
