HAROLD NEEDED A MOON

A SMALL FOREST WITH ONE TREE IN IT.

When it comes to showing imagination, I don't think you can outdo a small kid drawing whatever world he wants. I don't know how my grandkids will like it, but I loved it. What a great way to start creative thinking. I will probably play this before doing something creative with my grandkids.

I gave the performance five stars, but I agree that the music can be a little much. It is not enough to detract from the story though, but better music or no music could have been used.

I love the images that play with the audio!

We've been slowly going through and buying the audible books from the With Synchronized Images category and have found that some are mis-categorized and don't have images. This one DOES have the original illustrations and we just love it! This was one of my favorite books as a child and I love that I can share it with my kid - with fun and engaging music! I hope that in the future we can see the text, with highlights, to read along as some kids' apps have started offering.

Wasn't this supposed to be optional?

Loved the illustration along with the audio of a children's classic. Yoga Vasistha for children!

Such a fun childhood book

We love this story, and it is so fun to be able to listen to the audiobook version. We have enjoyed it in the car, during quiet time at home, and while we are out waiting for an appointment. It has been a favorite since around 1 1/2 and still going strong at 4!

Sweet and Fun

What an adorable story! I should have had a purple crayon when I was Harold's age. Heck! I need one now!

Parents this is a clever little story your young ones would love

Still Amazing

I read this book as a child and our of all the books I have read, this one is the one I still remember very well. An absolute amazing story about a boy, his crayon, and his awesome creativity.

Love these stories and the photos

These are one of my sons favorite stories. Great for kids ages 2-6. They really inspire imagination. I love the photos but glitch-y with my phone.

Love it!

Simply loved it! A very inspiring story for all ages! Great for visionaries and creatives

It Was Funny When Harold Had Not Made The Other Side Of What I Call Mount Harold, Also, Just Put A Kirby There To Get All Those Pies

YES -- Pictures in the Audible App!

We recently discovered these kids audible books that have the illustrations in a slideshow as they listen to the stories on their fire tablets in the app. My boys (5-11) are all LOVING discovering their favorite stories over again with Audible! These are a STEAL!
