HAROLD and PURPLE CRAYON

HAROLD and PURPLE CRAYON

Harold decided to go for a walk in the moonlight.

There wasn't any moon, and Harold needed a moon for a walk in the moonlight.

And he needed something to walk on.

He made a long straight path so he wouldn't get lost.

And he set off on his walk, taking his big purple crayon with him.

But he didn't seem to be getting anywhere on the long straight path.

So he left the path for a short cut across a field.

And the moon went with him.

The short cut led right to where Harold thought a forest ought to be.

He didn't want to get lost in the woods.

So he made a very small forest, with just one tree in it.

It turned out to be an apple tree.

The apples would be very tasty, Harold thought, when they got red.

So he put a frightening dragon under the tree to guard the apples.

His hand holding the purple crayon shook.

Suddenly he realized what was happening.

But by then Harold was over his head in an ocean.

He came up thinking fast.

And in no time he was climbing aboard a trim little boat.

He quickly set sail.

And the moon sailed along with him.

After he had sailed long enough, Harold made land without much trouble.

He stepped ashore on the beach, wondering where he was.

The sandy beach reminded Harold of picnics.

And the thought of picnics made him hungry.

So he laid out a nice simple picnic lunch.

There was nothing but pie.

But there were all nine kinds of pie that Harold liked best.
