Animated Harold
The original 1969 animation of the classic book "Harold and the Purple Crayon" by Crockett Johnson
Unlike tadmack above, I tend to love movies made from books--or, rather, anticipating such motion picture renderings. Most of the time, though, I probably wind up in the camp that does not favor a particular movie version of a book. But the animation of Harold and the Purple Crayon was excellent. Thanks for bringing it to our attention.
That was COOL.
ReplyDeleteNot a huge fan of movies from books, but book animations - much cooler! This seemed very Curious George!
My favorite part is still the nine kinds of pie... and I love that it's not specified.
