Crockett Johnson's popular children's books come to life in this, the first installment in an animated series inspired by his book Harold and the Purple Crayon. In this pilot episode, restless Harold (voice of Connor Matheus) is having a hard time sleeping, so he grabs his trusty purple crayon and sneaks outside, where he explores the wonders of the outside world and creates some new ones while he's at it. Sharon Stone serves as narrator. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi
