Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)This dvd will be nice for any little Harold and the Purple Crayon fans in your home. There are three Harold cartoons: Harold and the Purple Crayon, A Picture for Harold's Room, and Harold's Fairy Tale. Each has a male narrator (not Sharon Stone) and runs an average of 7 minutes.
There are also three bonus animations, produced by the same company but not by Harold author Crockett Johnson. The longest is 9 minutes, The Mysterious Tadpole by Steven Kellogg, about a boy's unusual birthday gift from his Scottish uncle. Drummer Hoff, by Barbara and Ed Emberley, runs 4-1/2 minutes and is a poem about a military group firing off a cannon. Smile for Auntie, by Diane Paterson and running 5 minutes, is about an aunt trying desperately to make her baby nephew smile.
Each of the six cartoons can be run with English subtitles. This dvd is not fancy or loaded with extras, and the animation is primitive by adult standards, but small children will really enjoy these simple and amusing tales.
