Happy Birthday Crockett Johnson!

Crockett Johnson was born on October 20, 1906. He is best known for writing and illustrating the Harold book series. The first in the series, Harold and the Purple Crayon, was published in 1955. He also illustrated The Carrot Seed by Ruth Krauss in 1945. I think the the boy in The Carrot Seed looks like he could be Harold's big brother. What do you think?
