Joyce, William The Fantastic Flying Books of Mr. Morris
Lessmore, illustrated by William Joyce and Joe Bluhm. Atheneum (Simon), 2012. $18. PICTURE
BOOK.
When a huge storm blows even
the words off the pages of Morris’s favorite books, he follows a lovely lady to
building of books. Reading and caring and sharing his new friends fill all his
days with wonder.
Though the story
came first, the book ended up not being published until after the Academy Award
winning short film and the fabulous story app, but it is definitely worth the
wait! What a great confluence of
platforms to share with any audience.
This is a winner for story time for sure. And don’t forget that your favorite librarian, writer,
English teacher or reader would probably love this for any gift-giving
occasion.
