Does anyone remember this?

"Harold and the Purple Crayon"

Something recently reminded me of the charming story I grew up reading.

Not implying anything... Nothing at all.

Harold could do no wrong.

However, Donald and the Black Sharpie is the opposite side of the coin.

Nobody else in my town got to read 'em, because if I didn't have 'em checked out of the library, my sister did!

Thought about 'em recently myself! got to wondering if I could find 'em on ebay or someplace.

I seem to remember buying a discarded copy from a library once.
