So I almost dozed off last night when I suddenly remembered that this purple book is based on Meam Loaz. Jumped up to check, but Google still didn't help. I didn't know it was such a rare item!
Thanks for all your ideas, and also for historical book suggestions.
I do have a lead how to find my old copy of the book, if that works out I'll update here

There is Torah Anthology- read it once when I was young, don't remember much from it- but it's not purple.

Yalkut Me'Am Lo'ez : Esther
Yalkut Me'Am Lo'ez : Esther
Click Images(s) to Enlarge
By: Rabbi Yaacov Culi | Publisher: Moznaim | Language: Hebrew | Volumes: 1 | Pages: 322 | Binding: Hard |
Meam Loez is hailed as "the outstanding work of Ladino litrature". Written by Rabbi Yaakov Culi, one of the greatest Sepharadic sages of his time, the book was first published in 1730. It changed the spiritual climate of the entire Mediterranian region. Eastern Jews esteemed Me'am Lo'ez as a major classic, affording it virtually the same status as the Talmud and Midrash. Many count Me'am Lo'ez among the best commentaries ever written on the Tanach-in any language. The major classical commentaries are presented, not as a dry textual analysis, . The book is a veritable encyclopedia of Jewish knowledge.
