Commentaire descriptif

“One night, after thinking it over for some time, Harold decided to go for a walk in the moonlight.” The trouble is, there is no moonlight and no path to walk on. So Harold grabs a crayon and draws them, thus embarking on an adventure which involves a small forest, a dragon, an ocean, a sandy beach, a picnic lunch, “a very hungry moose and a deserving porcupine” and more. Told through spare text and illustrations that feature simple lines and only three colours – white, tan and purple – the story follows Harold on his travels, armed with only a big, purple crayon and his oversized imagination. Harold, an endearing, round-headed cartoon figure, charges his fantasy landscapes with challenges and obstacles for his creativity and quick wit to solve: he sketches himself “a trim little boat” when he finds himself in deep waters; a hot air balloon to ride after falling from a mountain. This small book has a big message about all the places that our imagination can take us. A fun read-aloud, it invites pauses in the telling to predict what might happen next along the journey.
