HAROLD'S CIRCUS
by Crockett Johnson & illustrated by Crockett Johnson
That lucky purple crayon of little Harold again works its magic. This time Harold conjures up a gay circus replete with animals, clowns, refreshments, and of course, the greatest showman of them all, Harold, himself. A bright book built on a well tested principle that should provide a happy introduction to the circus. In this episode Crockett Johnson achieves a singularly animated effect with his purple line drawings.
